ARALDITE GY6010

Main features

  • Medium-Viscosity Liquid Processing
  • Multiple Hardener Cure Options
  • Versatile Resin Formulation Base

Product Description

ARALDITE GY 6010 Epoxy Resin is a medium-viscosity, unmodified liquid bisphenol-A epoxy resin for room-temperature and heat-cured systems. Its typical as-supplied profile includes 11,000 to 13,000 mPa s viscosity at 25 deg C, an epoxy equivalent of 182 to 192 g/eq, and density of 1.15 to 1.18 g/cm^3. The resin can be cured with multiple hardener types and formulated with compatible fillers, diluents, and accelerators. This versatility supports coatings, matrix-resin applications, electrical systems, adhesives, and civil-engineering work. Processing and final performance depend on the selected hardener, ratio, and cure schedule, so formulation data remain tied to the stated combination and test conditions.

Key features

  • Medium-viscosity liquid handling: Typical viscosity is 11,000 to 13,000 mPa s at 25 deg C.
  • Flexible cure formulation: The resin can be combined with multiple hardener types for room-temperature or heat-cured systems.
  • Compatible formulation base: Documented compatibility includes many fillers, diluents, and accelerators.

Applications

Coatings, matrix resins, electrical systems, adhesives, and civil-engineering formulations.

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application
