HN-5508AB is a general-purpose, two-component flame-retardant epoxy potting compound designed for sealing, encapsulating and insulating small and medium electronic components. With a moderate viscosity of 1600 ± 200 cps it flows into narrow gaps, cures at room temperature or at a moderate 60°C, and forms a smooth, glossy, bubble-free surface with Shore D 75 ± 3 hardness. The cured compound delivers UL94 V0 flame retardancy, 20-22 kV/mm dielectric strength, high compressive and bonding strength, and reliable acid, alkali, moisture, oil and dust resistance, making it a cost-effective protection solution for high-volume production lines.

Q: What is the mixing ratio and pot life of HN-5508AB?
A: HN-5508AB is mixed at 5:1 by weight (not by volume). Pot life is 30-40 minutes at 25°C for a 100 g mix, which leaves enough working time to pot a full batch of small components.
Q: Does it cure at room temperature or does it need an oven?
A: Both options are available. At 25°C the compound reaches full cure in 8-12 hours with a 6-8 hour tack-free time; for faster output it can be cured at 60°C in 2 hours.
Q: Is it suitable for AC capacitors, miniature transformers and ignition coils?
A: Yes. At 1600 ± 200 cps the uncured resin penetrates narrow gaps between windings and capacitor cans, and the cured compound provides 20-22 kV/mm dielectric strength, UL94 V0 flame retardancy and strong bonding to plastic, metal and PCB substrates.
Q: How do I avoid bubbles and voids in the potting layer?
A: Preheat the parts to 80-90°C for at least 2 hours to drive off moisture, degas the mixed resin under vacuum down to -0.1 MPa, then pour within the pot life. The cured surface is smooth, glossy and bubble-free.
Q: What certifications, MOQ and OEM support do you offer?
A: The compound complies with the EU RoHS Directive and the cured material is rated UL94 V0. TDS, MSDS and free samples are available, MOQ starts at 1 kg, and OEM/private-label packing with custom colour or hardness can be produced in our own factory.
