Lord 312
General-Purpose, Low Viscosity, Two-Part Epoxy Adhesive

Description
Lord® 312 is a general purpose, low viscosity, two-part, epoxy adhesive used for applications that require an adhesive with good flow characteristics. The cured adhesive offers strong, durable, chemically and environmentally resistant bonds for close-fitting assemblies and potting applications. Lord 312 adhesive has demonstrated excellent adhesion to prepared metals, thermosets, wood, prepared rubber and other materials.

Features and Benefits
Contains No Solvent -
provides 100% solids content, nonflammable, and virtually odorless.

Excellent Flow Characteristics - provides a low viscosity that makes this adhesive convenient for potting and thin film encapsulation.
 

High Strength - provides load bearing properties equal to or greater than the materials being bonded in many cases.

Environmental and Chemical Resistance - resists dilute acids, alkalis, solvents, greases, oils, moisture, sunlight, and weathering. Temperature resistant from -34°C to 121°C (-30° F to 250° F).

Variable Cure - cures completely at room tempera­ture or more quickly at elevated temperatures. See graph in the Technical Data Sheet.

Excellent Engineering Properties - provides low shrinkage, good creep properties, fully insulating, and low water absorption. For these and other engineering properties, see Technical Data Sheet.

Flexible Mix Ratio - allows for modest variations from the general purpose mix ratio to improve resistance to heat, cold, shear and peel stresses.
