Product Description

Epothin 2 Low Viscosity Epoxy 

EpoThin® 2 is a free flowing, low viscosity, low shrinkage epoxy resin that is ideal for use with porous and heat sensitive samples. It produces a clear, bubble free mount, offering an unobstructed view of embedded samples. It has a typical cure time of nine hours at 27°C and is excellent for vacuum impregnation.

EpoThin 2 resin is Harmful.

EpoThin 2 hardener is Corrosive.



Exceptional Penetration for Precise Work

Thanks to its low viscosity and effective resin-to-hardener ratio, Epothin 2 flows easily into intricate spaces. This makes it especially valuable for vacuum impregnation, thin section preparation, and specimen mounting, ensuring minimal air entrapment and high-quality results.


Reliable and Fast Curing Capability

Epothin 2 boasts a pot life of 6075 minutes at room temperature, allowing ample working time for detailed projects. Its cure time can be tailored to project needs68 hours at room temperature or accelerated to just 24 hours at 60C, delivering a durable, clear finish quickly and efficiently.


Laboratory-Grade Durability and Clarity

Once cured, Epothin 2 achieves a robust 82 Shore D hardness and exhibits excellent abrasion resistance, ideal for polished sections and demanding laboratory environments. The clear to pale amber finish preserves sample visibility and structural integrity during long-term use or analysis.

FAQs of Epothin 2 Low Viscosity Epoxy:


Q: How do I properly mix Epothin 2 Low Viscosity Epoxy for best results?

A: Combine the resin and hardener at a ratio of 3:1 by weight, mixing carefully to produce a homogeneous blend. Ensure accurate weighing for optimal curing and avoid introducing air bubbles by stirring gently yet thoroughly.

Q: What types of applications is Epothin 2 most suited for?

A: Epothin 2 excels in laboratory settings for thin section preparation, vacuum impregnation, circuit board encapsulation, and mineral mounting. Its clear finish and strong adhesion make it ideal for embedding and preserving specimens.

Q: When is the best time to use the mixed epoxy after preparation?

A: Once mixed, the epoxy has a pot life of approximately 6075 minutes at 25C (100g mass). Begin your application within this window to ensure workability before the mixture begins to set.

Q: Where should I store Epothin 2 Epoxy to maintain its shelf life?

A: Store Epothin 2 in its original, tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry environment. Proper storage will maintain its effectiveness for up to 24 months without significant degradation.

Q: What benefits does Epothin 2 offer compared to other epoxy systems?

A: Epothin 2 provides excellent penetration due to its low viscosity, rapid and customizable cure times, exceptional hardness, and clear finish. Its specifically manufactured to meet rigorous laboratory and industrial standards.

Q: What safety precautions should I take when using this product?

A: Though non-poisonous and mostly odorless, avoid direct skin contact by wearing gloves and safety glasses. Work in a well-ventilated area and wash skin thoroughly if exposed to the mixture.

Q: How does Epothin 2 enhance the preparation of mineral or circuit board samples?

A: Its low viscosity ensures thorough infiltration of small voids, resulting in robust encapsulation. The resulting cured surface is clear, tough, and highly resistant to abrasion, ideal for both analysis and preservation.
