PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The 60 Minute Conductive Epoxy is a two part,
silver epoxy used in prototype, repair and
general solder-less conductive bonding
applications. It features strong mechanical
bonds, excellent electrical conductivity, and
extended pot life for increased work time.
Components can be easily placed and replaced
before full cure occurs. For accelerated cure,
simply heat material to 212˚F (100˚C). This
conductive epoxy bonds aggressively to a wide
variety of materials.
Two-component product with simple mixing
ratios
60 minute work time offers increased
workability and extended pot life
Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity
High strength bond adheres dissimilar
surfaces
Operating temperature range from
-67°F (-55°C) to 300°F (150°C)
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
60 Minute Conductive Epoxy may be used for
electronics applications including:
Conductive Bonds Between Heat Sensitive
Components
Solderless Surface Mount Connections
Circuit Board Trace Repair
Static Discharge and Grounding
Solder Repair
Conductive Structural Adhesions

Technical Data Sheet
60 Minute Conductive Epoxy
COMPATIBILITY
60 Minute Conductive Epoxy is generally
compatible with most materials used in printed
circuit board fabrication. As with any
adhesive/sealant, compatibility with substrate
should be determined on a non-critical area prior to
use.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Read MSDS carefully prior to use.
Cleaning: For best results, clean the board prior to
application with a Chemtronics ControlWipe
and Chemtronics Electro-Wash PX to remove any
surface contamination which may prevent adequate
material contact.
Mixing: Mix equal amounts (1:1) by weight or
volume of Part A and Part B. Mix thoroughly for 2-
3 minutes and apply within 1-2 hours.
Thinning: Do not attempt to thin.
Curing: Curing times and electrical conductivity
depend primarily on temperature. For fastest curing
times, maximum conductivity and adhesion, cure
the bond at 175°F to 212°F (80 t o 100°C) for 10-15
minutes. It can be room temperature cured at or
above 77°F (25°C) for 24 hours. Maximum
conductivity and bond strength are achieved in 36
hours. Curing at temperatures below 77
°
F
(25
°
C) will result in a loss of conductivity and
adhesion.
Pot Life: 1-2 hours at 20-25°C after mixing (3-5
gram mass).
