LOCTITE E-05MR

Main features

  • Ultra-Clear 1:1 Epoxy
  • Fast Adhesive Fixture
  • 34 kV/mm Dielectric Strength

Product Description

LOCTITE® EA E-05MR™ is a general-purpose, two-component epoxy adhesive that develops high bond strength on a wide range of substrates. The ultra-clear formulation cures at room temperature to form a water-white transparent bond line with excellent impact resistance and gap-filling capability. It is particularly suitable for bonding metals, ceramics, rigid plastics and wood where optical clarity and durable structural performance are required.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Ultra-clear, water-white cured bond line.
  • Two-component room-temperature curing epoxy.
  • Excellent impact resistance after cure.
  • Gap-filling capability for rough or poorly fitting surfaces.
  • High bond strength on multiple substrates.
  • Good electrical insulation properties.
  • Suitable for metal, ceramic, plastic and wood bonding.

Recommended Applications

  • General-purpose industrial bonding.
  • Clear structural adhesive assemblies.
  • Metal and ceramic bonding.
  • Rigid plastic assembly.
  • Wood bonding and repair.

Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

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
