New Master Bond structural adhesive resists extreme high temperature

27 January 2011

The new Supreme 33 structural adhesive from Master Bond is not only resistant to extreme high temperatures but also cures at room temperature.

Master Bonds' Supreme 33 is formulated for structural applications in extreme environments with temperatures from -80°F to 425°F and boasts superior resistance to thermal cycling, thermal shock and impact. This toughened, two-component epoxy offers high structural bond strength to a wide variety of substrates including metals, glass, ceramics, wood, vulcanized rubbers and many plastics. Supreme 33 is also resistant to water, chemicals, oil and many organic solvents.

Supreme 33 has a mix ratio of 100 to 70 by weight or 1 to 1 by volume. It cures conveniently at room temperature in 48 to 72 hours. For optimal performance, the suggested schedule is curing overnight at room temperature followed by 2 to 3 hours at 150°F to 200°F. This 100% reactive epoxy does not contain any solvents or diluents, has exceptional dimensional stability and features very low shrinkage upon cure.

It produces high performance bonds boasting a shear strength over 2,500 psi, a tensile shear strength greater than 7,500 psi and a T-peel strength exceeding 15 pli. With a volume resistivity of 1014 ohm-cm, a dielectric strength over 400 volts/mil and a dielectric constant of 3.8 at 75°F, Supreme 33 is an outstanding electrical insulator that is widely used in the electronic, electrical, aerospace and OEM industries. Supreme 33 is also available in a non-drip version, Supreme 33ND.
