Epoxy Secures Pot-And-Polish Fiber-Optic Connections

The F230 epoxy adhesive is offered as a fast, heat cure material with a low viscosity and a high glass transition temperature to help it withstand high operating temperatures. It is claimed to be an excellent material for pot and polish fiber optic connections and the adhesive boasts of having a high environmental tolerance as it is resistant to weather, water, vapors and gases, petroleum products, and many organics and inorganics. Maintaining a clear color, the material changes from light yellow to green/blue upon mixing, and then changes to a red/amber after curing.
