Description
LORD 4688 A/B is a two-component modified epoxy syntactic foam system. It is used to reinforce honeycomb core and other hollow structures where low density and high compressive strength are required. The mixed product has a thixotropic, paste-like consistency suited for trowel or injection application. This listing is for the 6 oz cartridge format.

Performance in Production
- Thixotropic mixed consistency holds position during trowel or injection application without sagging.
- 30-minute working time supports careful placement in complex or multi-cavity structures.
- Two cure options: 24 hours at room temperature, or 3 hours at 75°C for faster cycle time.
- Very low specific gravity (0.45 g/cm3) contributes minimal weight to the assembly.
- Low outgassing per ASTM E-595 (TML 0.52%, CVCM 0.01%).
- Color-coded components support visual mix confirmation.
Common Applications
- Honeycomb core reinforcement
- Hollow structure reinforcement
- Trowel or injection-applied void filling
- Low-density structural foam applications
- Applications requiring low outgassing per ASTM E-595
