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.



Precise and Versatile Application

Epothin 2 is specifically formulated for seamless embedding, encapsulation, and specimen mounting. Its low viscosity ensures deep penetration and complete wetting, crucial in electronics assembly and sample preparation for microscopy. This feature helps users achieve clear specimens with minimal air entrapment, essential for high-quality analysis and research.


Reliable Mechanical Performance

With a Shore D hardness of 83 and a compressive strength of 14,000 psi, Epothin 2 delivers robust support for delicate samples. The epoxys heat deflection temperature of 54C makes it suitable for a wide range of laboratory procedures while maintaining its integrity under moderate temperatures.


Flexible Kit Packaging

To accommodate diverse project scales, Epothin 2 is supplied in several kit sizes, from 16 oz to 1 gallon. Each kit contains both resin and hardener clearly measured for the correct 3:1 mix ratio, ensuring consistent curing and ease of use for everyone from research labs to industrial environments.

FAQs of Epothin 2 Low Viscosity Epoxy:


Q: How should I mix Epothin 2 Low Viscosity Epoxy for optimal results?

A: Combine the resin and hardener in a 3:1 volume ratio (resin:hardener). Stir thoroughly to achieve a uniform mixture, ensuring no unmixed material remains on the container walls. Proper mixing is key to securing full curing and clean embedding results.

Q: What is the recommended working and curing time for Epothin 2?

A: After mixing, you have approximately 45 minutes of working time at 21C (70F). Once applied, the epoxy cures fully within 12 to 24 hours at room temperature, providing a clear to slightly amber, hard finish suitable for laboratory and electronics uses.

Q: Where is Epothin 2 commonly utilized?

A: Epothin 2 is widely used in laboratories and industrial settings for embedding, encapsulation, and mounting of samplesparticularly in microscopy and electronics assembly. Its clarity and mechanical strength make it ideal for research, materials characterization, and advanced sample preparation.

Q: What benefits does low viscosity provide in this epoxy system?

A: The low viscosity (500800 cP at 21C) allows the epoxy to flow easily around samples, reducing air bubbles and voids. This property ensures deep penetration and thorough encapsulation, producing specimens with excellent structural integrity and optical clarity for detailed analysis.

Q: How should Epothin 2 be stored to maximize its shelf life?

A: Store the unopened kit in a cool, dry place to retain its quality for up to 18 months. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use, and keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent premature degradation.

Q: What are the safety precautions for working with Epothin 2?

A: Although Epothin 2 exhibits only a mild epoxy odor, it is an irritant. Avoid inhalation of vapors and prevent skin or eye contact by using gloves, protective eyewear, and working in a well-ventilated area. Follow your local guidelines for handling and disposal.
