Kohesi Bond KB 1040 Two component, room temperature curing clear epoxy
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Epoxy; Epoxy Adhesive; Epoxy Encapsulant, Unreinforced

Material Notes: Product Highlights:
  • Phenomenal optical clarity
  • Excellent flow properties
  • Outstanding adhesion to various substrates
  • Very low shrinkage post curing
  • Exceptional electrical insulation
  • Stellar dimensional stability
Kohesi Bond KB 1040 is a two component, room temperature curing epoxy system suitable for bonding, sealing, potting and encapsulation. It has a favorable 4:1 (Part A: Part B) mix ratio by weight. This epoxy system offers excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates, such as metals, glass, ceramics, most plastics and rubbers. It readily cures at room temperature and can achieve faster cures at elevated temperatures. The optimal cure schedule is an overnight room temperature set-up followed by a heat cure at 70°C - 90°C for 1 - 2 hours. KB 1040 is optically clear and offers top notch light transmissions properties. It has a refractive index of 1.57. It offers an extensive service temperature range of -50°C to +120°C. This adhesive fosters outstanding physical strength properties as well as dimensional stability. It offers minimal shrinkage upon cure. This makes it suitable for gap filling applications. It also offers excellent chemical resistance to a variety of fuels, oils, acids, bases and water. Part A is clear in color and Part B is light straw in color. KB 1040 is widely used in optical, optoelectronic, fiber-optic, electronics, aerospace and related industries especially when optical clarity is desirable.
