PELCO 2-Hour Epoxy Mount Kit

For optical clarity, high hardness, low viscosity and good adhesion

The PELCO Epoxy Mount Kit uses a cold embedding material designed for metallography, ceramography, geology and petrology samples.

Used for light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and micro probe analysis.
It is low viscosity, low exotherm reaction and low shrinkage.It can be used in conjunction with vacuum impregnation to ensure complete and void-free embedding.

The cured resin is extremely hard, optically clear, and has excellent bond strength.
It gives excellent polish and edge retention to the sample.

Polymerization time is 2 hours at 77 F (25 C).
Mixing ratio is 2:1 per volume (resin 2 parts to hardener 1 part).

The 2-Hour (fast cure) Epoxy Mount Kit contains the following items:
813-501	PELCO Epoxy Resin, 1 gallon (3,785ml)
813-504	PELCO Fast Cure Hardener (2 hour), 0.5 gallon (1,892ml)
813-503	PELCO Epoxy Pump, set of 2
128-4	Mixing Sticks, pkg/100
12904-20	Tri-Stir Beakers, 100ml, with pouring spout, pkg/20
12906-20	Tri-Stir Beakers, 250ml, with pouring spout, pkg/20

PELCO 24-Hour Epoxy Mount Kit

for optical clarity, high hardness, low viscosity and good adhesion

The PELCO 24-Hour Epoxy Mount Kit has the same optical clarity, high hardness, low shrinkage and low viscosity as our 2-Hour epoxy kit, but with a much longer pot life (up to one hour) and slower curing (24 hours).This allows for embedding larger batches in one charge and better impregnation of porous samples.

The longer pot life gives ample time to remove trapped gas and to avoid air bubbles in the embedding.It can be used with vacuum or pressure impregnation to remove trapped gas.
The cured resin is extremely hard, optically clear and has excellent bond strength.
It gives excellent edge retention during grinding and polishing of metallographic samples.

Polymerization time is 24 hours at 77 F (25 C).
Mixing ratio is 3:1 per volume (resin 3 parts to hardener 1 part).

The 24-Hour (slow cure) Epoxy Mount Kit contains the following items:
813-501	PELCO Epoxy Resin, 1 gallon (3,785ml)
813-514	PELCO Slow Cure Hardener (24 hour), 0.33 gallon (1262ml)
813-503	PELCO Epoxy Pump, set of 2
128-4	Mixing Sticks, pkg/100
12904-20	Tri-Stir Beakers, 100ml, with pouring spout, pkg/20
12906-20	Tri-Stir Beakers, 250ml, with pouring spout, pkg/20
