TOUGH-SEAL™ ULTRA vs. Other Potting Compounds
TOUGH-SEAL™ is a RoHS Compliant, easy-to-mix, two component durable hybrid epoxy elastomer that offers a unique combination of KEY properties not commonly found in just one potting compound. It offers the heat resistance of an epoxy, the flexibility of a urethane and the durable encapsulating protection of a silicone. TOUGH-SEAL™ is not a urethane, so it is isocyanate-free and it is not moisture sensitive.
With exceptional flexibility at temperatures as low as -103°F (-75°C) and high temperature resistance up to 302°F (150°C). TOUGH-SEAL™ grips in the cold, when other potting compounds contract, and maintains a tough seal in the heat, when other potting compounds wilt. TOUGH-SEAL™ does not crack, so electronic components remain protected from moisture. When exposed to moisture, TOUGH-SEAL™ also offers Anti-Microbial protection. TOUGH-SEAL™ does not support fungal growth and meets the requirements of MIL-STD-810G Method 508.6.
With very low exotherm in large volume pours, extremely low shrinkage, and little to no expansion or contraction with temperature changes, TOUGH-SEAL™ is gentler on sensitive circuitry, than hard epoxies, delivering low embedment stress upon cure and during thermal cycling.
TOUGH-SEAL™ provides durable encapsulating protection that guards electrical components from exposure to the harmful effects of the environment better than typical epoxies, urethanes and silicones.
TOUGH-SEAL™ vs. Other Potting Compounds
Introducing TOUGH-SEAL™ULTRA! This next generation of KEY potting compounds and sealants bred better than ever to grip and protect electronics, PCB’s and electronic assemblies, connectors, LED Lighting and more, under the most aggressive conditions.
The new extended 18 month shelf-life TOUGH-SEAL™ ULTRA is RoHS, REACH and Prop 65 Compliant. This next generation elastomeric hybrid epoxy remains flexible at sub zero temperatures, is non shrinking, and has excellent thermal cycling stability from -40 to 150C, just like the original TOUGH-SEAL. With very low exotherm in large volume pours, extremely low shrinkage, and little to no expansion or contraction with temperature changes, TOUGH-SEAL™ ULTRA is gentler on sensitive circuitry, than hard epoxies, delivering low embedment stress upon cure and during thermal cycling. TOUGH-SEAL™ ULTRA provides durable encapsulating protection that guards electrical components from exposure to the harmful effects of the environment better than typical epoxies, urethanes and silicones.
With no signs of degradation or change in hardness even after over 2000 hours of rigorous reliability testing at 85C/85%, TOUGH-SEAL ULTRA, is an excellent choice for endless applications especially those where polycarbonate would normally weaken, etch, craze, or deterioration completely under these conditions.
