SynChem – Resins & Varnishes WEVOPUR 390 PU encapsulating system
Two-component encapsulating system based on polyurethane.
The resin component is formulated with a mineral filler which provides self-extinguishing properties. The resin contains no halogenated flame-retardants. Once cured it has visco-plastic properties.
The casting resin WEVOPUR 390 is used with WEVONAT 300.
Recommended use from -40 °C to +130 °C.
Application
Encapsulation of electrical components for low and medium voltage applications.
Standards
Class B
UL 94 V 2 (1.5 mm)
UL File E 108835
Delivery forms
30 kg metal containers
Color
WEVOPUR 390: Black. Others on request
WEVONAT 300: Dark brown
Storage
6 months in original containers, dry storage between 15 °C and 25 °C.
- Store resin (A component, polyol) and hardener (B component, Isocyanat) dry and at temperatures between 15 °C and 25 °C. Store on pallets or collecting tray and do not expose to draft.
- At temperatures below 15 °C the hardener can crystallise which can be seen by opacity and/or clumps/crystals (usually hardeners are clear, transparent liquids in spite of their dark brown colour). In this case the hardener should not be used anymore.
- At temperatures higher then 25 °C the sedimentation of fillers contained in the resin component is accelerated. As a consequence it is more difficult to prepare (stir) the resin.
Hardening
Pot life: 35 - 50 min at room temperature, depending on coat thickness and pouring volume.
Curing time: 12 - 24 h at room temperature
Complete chemical curing: 10 - 14 days at room temperature
- High air moisture may lead to forming of bubbles. Reference value: the rel. air humidity should not exceed 40 - 60 %, depending on the product.To avoid a reaction of the surface curing should be in an air conditioned room, a container with low air moisture or in an oven.
- Elevated temperatures accelerate the curing.
- Curing temperature should not exceed 80 °C to avoid tensions of the resin.
- Final hardness of WEVOPUR 390 will be attained after 7 – 14 days at room temperature.
- This process can be accelerated by post curing at 60 - 80 °C for 16 - 24 h. This is relevant for potted components subjec to qualification tests.
- Electrical tests can usually be carried out straight after potting.
Protection
Observe the common protective measures acc. to EG safety data sheets and the data sheet M044 of the German Chemical Industry Association (BG Chemie) when using the liquid resin.
Cleaning
Since the cured resin is practically insoluble, tools and equipment have to be cleaned in sufficient time.
