How Does Epic S7527 Compare Against Silicones?

While silicone potting compounds have some advantages, Epic S7527 offers a much wider scope across applications. The main advantage of silicone potting compounds is the material’s elevated thermal resistance (over 160°C) while offering a soft polymer. It should be noted that the thermal range of Epic S7527 can easily handle the operating temperatures of many industrial electronics, and its lower cost offers a better option for a wider range of applications.

S7527 offers many advantages over flame-retardant silicones, including:

  • More economical polymer: lower cost of raw materials and application processes
  • Lower water vapor permeability: offers better protection of sensitive components against water migration causing corrosion
  • Reduced outgassing: utilizing different raw materials resulting in lower outgassing
  • Better bond strength: dependable adhesion to substrates and casings
  • Improved physical attributes: higher strength; elongation and abrasion resistance
  • Better chemical resistance: stands up to exposure to more chemical compounds
  • Versatile processing advantages: customers can choose from various gel time versions that will fit their specific production requirements
