An encapsulant, also know as a potting compound or casting resin, is a liquid resin system comprised of either one or two components that is poured over electrical and electronic components. It can either be in an enclosure such as a plastic shell or case or it is poured into a mold holding the components where the cured material acts as the shell. These encapsulating resins are designed to electrically insulate and environmentally protect the components from moisture, chemicals, mechanical/thermal shock and vibration. This protection allows these electronics to be used in many more applications ensuring reliable, long-term performance.
Resinlab specializes in providing custom resin systems to meet the exact requirement for your potting application but we also have a large series of standard products. We offer a complete line of two component epoxy encapsulants as well as some single component epoxies and two component urethanes. All of our products are RoHS compliant and several are UL-recognized flame retardant encapsulants. They are designed to provide security to protect proprietary designs, tamper-proofing, thermal management, and electrical insulation to prevent arcing and short circuiting between the electrical/electronic components in an assembly. We offer materials varying in durometer from very hard (Shore-D 90) to gel like (Shore-OO 50) potting compounds in varying speeds of cure and viscosities to meet the needs of the processing parameters and required performance.
We formulate all of our products with the application process in mind - resulting in efficient, worker-safe and cost-effective manufacturing.
