Elantas Conacure EA-87 Epoxy Encapsulant Catalyst (1 Gallon Can)

Description

Elantas Conacure EA-87 is a heat-cure catalyst for the Conapoxy family of epoxy potting and encapsulating resins. Supplied in a 1 gallon can, EA-87 is paired with Conapoxy resins such as RN-1000 to produce a low-exotherm, low-shrinkage, thermally stable cured system suitable for electrical and electronic encapsulation.

Where Conacure EA-87 fits

EA-87 is the catalyst side of two-part heat-cure epoxy systems used to pot transformers, coils, sensors, and similar electrical assemblies. Manufacturers spec it when they need good thermal shock resistance, dielectric performance, and dimensional stability across temperature cycles. Typical users are electronics manufacturers, motor and sensor builders, and contract potting houses producing parts for industrial controls, aerospace, and medical equipment.

How Conacure EA-87 cures and behaves

EA-87 is a light amber, low-viscosity curative with a working handling time around 90 minutes after mixing with the resin component. Cure is driven by heat per the resin system datasheet, which controls the final glass transition and electrical properties. Mix ratio, dispense viscosity, and cure schedule must follow the matched resin TDS to land the stated properties. Store in original sealed container in a cool dry area.

Order EA-87 to pair with your existing Conapoxy resin gallon. Confirm the matched resin part number and mix ratio before ordering, since the resin and catalyst pair must match for the cure to land. Manufacturer technical data is available at Elantas, and the full Chemical Concepts encapsulants and potting compounds catalog lists related resins.
