ECCOSORB® CR500 is a series of castable, high temperature resins designed for use for short periods at 500 °F (260 °C). Exposure to high temperature should be limited as slow changes in physical and electrical properties occur at temperatures above about 350°F (177°C).
ECCOSORB® CR500 can be used to mold waveguide terminations, attenuators, loads and other custom parts to finished size. When fully cured, these materials will duplicate the physical and electrical properties of the corresponding material in the ECCOSORB® MF500F series. For example ECCOSORB® CR500-117 is the equivalent to ECCOSORB® MF500-117. Due to their low out-gassing properties, these materials may be suitable for space applications.
All members of the ECCOSORB® CR500 series are supplied as two component kits consisting of a Component X (resin) and Component Y (catalyst).
