EP30P from Master Bond Inc. is a two-component, transparent, low-viscosity epoxy system for high-performance bonding, sealing, coating, encapsulation, and casting. The system has a 4-to-1 mix ratio by weight and is formulated to cure at room temperatures. Cures can be accelerated by the use of heat. EP30P bonds well to a wide variety of substrates including metals, glass, ceramics, and many plastics. It has a service operating temperature range of −60°F to 250°F.

The epoxy is a 100% reactive system and contains no solvents or diluents. It has exceptionally low linear shrinkage upon cure and offers outstanding electrical insulation properties. It forms bonds that are rigid and have high strength. Tensile strength is greater than 9500 psi. EP30P also exhibits superior resistance to water, acids, bases, and salts. Master Bond EP30P has a mixed viscosity of 1,200 to 1,400 cps. It is available in pint, quart, gallon, and five-gallon kits, or it can be applied with a gun applicator.
