EP17HT-100 is a single-part epoxy designed to cure in 60-90 min. at 200-220°F. Formulated for potting, encapsulation, bonding and sealing applications. Cures can be accelerated at higher temperatures. Is a moderate viscosity compound that can be cast in sections up to a 0.5" thick. Is not premixed and frozen. Reportedly has an unlimited working life at room temp. Offers volume resistivity of >1015 ohm-cm. Bonds well to metals, composites, ceramics, glass and many plastics. Exhibits a tensile lap shear strength exceeding 2,700 psi at ambient temp. after being post-cured for several hours at 350-400°F. Has thermal conductivity of 4-5 BTU·in/(hr·ft²·°F). Service temp. range -100°F to +500°F.

XF-784, a 1 mil matte antistatic, barcode tracking label material, is said to enhance print receptivity and the capability to withstand harsh fluxes and cleaning chemistry found in PCB manufacturing. Shows improved performance over the gloss coatings when exposed to a non-reflow environment prior to cleaning. Reduce charge generated on adhesive when label is removed from liner. Provides peel voltages of less than 100V per inch square. Designed to prevent significant charge buildup on the label surface, which can result in a static discharge event. Label surface resistance between 1.0 x 108 and 1.0 x 1011 ohms.
