FAQS:
  • What are the key properties of LE-8516 epoxy resin?
    LE-8516 is a transparent, light yellow, viscous liquid with an epoxy value of 4.5-5.0 Eq/kg, viscosity of 500-1000 mPa.s at 25°C, and a flash point of about 135°C.
  • How should the epoxy resin and hardener be stored?
    Store in tightly sealed, dry original containers at 6-35°C. The shelf life is 12 months, and partial emptied containers should be closed tightly after use.
  • What are the processing parameters for vacuum casting?
    For vacuum casting, mix the epoxy and hardener at 50-60°C for 1-1.5 hours, use a vacuum casting pot, and cure at 105°C for 4-6 hours followed by post-cure at 130-140°C for 6-10 hours.
