LOCTITE 3162

Main features

  • Dedicated PE Hardener Component
  • Amber Liquid Component Identification
  • Estimated Zero VOC Content

Product Description

LOCTITE PE 3162 Epoxy Hardener is the liquid hardener component for compatible LOCTITE PE 3141 and PE 3142 epoxy potting systems. The amber, alkaline liquid has a relative density of 1.0 and an estimated VOC content of 0%, providing clear as-supplied identification during component preparation. It is supplied as the curing component only and must be combined with the applicable resin under the system's validated mixing and cure instructions. Applications include hardener service in supported PE epoxy potting assemblies using PE 3142 or compatible PE resin systems; resin properties and cured-system performance are excluded from this component page.

Key features

  • Dedicated Hardener Component: Supplied as the PE 3162 curing component for compatible PE epoxy potting resin systems.
  • Amber Liquid Identification: The amber liquid and relative density of 1.0 keep the component identity explicit during preparation.
  • Estimated Zero VOC Content: As-supplied VOC content is estimated at 0% and 0 g/L.

Applications

Hardener component for LOCTITE PE 3142 and compatible PE epoxy potting resin systems.

Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application
