Product Information Sheet

FINESET - AE 933
(SINGLE COMPONENT EPOXY FOR B - STAGING)

PRODUCT

FINESET - AE 933 is a one component, solvent-containing, B-staging epoxy adhesive,

offered as a clear solution.

APPLICATION

FINESET - AE 933 is an ideal adhesive compound suitable for loading polyester fleece for
application in electric motors. This is also used for coating nomex sheets, which are used as
slot insulation in HT machines. The bonding of these sheets to winding and core will take
place at temperatures above 130oC. It can also be used to bond the magnetic particles and
then to press and cure to make bonded magnets. Another important application is its use as a
consolidating resin for HT coils. This is also an excellent coating for electrical insulation of
components like strain gauges.

SPECIAL FEATURES

The following advantages make it ideal for industrial use.

Easy to use due it being a single-pack composition.

Very slight odour.
Decrease in viscosity on heating, which ensures proper flow in the joint surface.
Normal contact pressure is adequate while curing.
Excellent heat resistance up to 180oC.
Very Good chemical resistance and electrical insulation.

PROCESS

For reducing the viscosity of FINESET - AE 933, methyl ethyl ketone can be added. After
thorough mixing, coat the sheets or soak the fleece and remove the solvent by drying at 60 -
80oC. The loaded or coated products can be stored for at least 6 months at temperatures of
less than 25oC. The fleece or nomex sheets have excellent flexibility. The final product can
be cured at schedules, selected from the following table.
Cure Temperature Min. Cure Time
130oC 10 hours
o
150 C 2.5 hours
180oC 30 minutes
Cure schedule for a specific process has to be established by trial.

PROPERTIES OF CURED JOINT

A joint made of aluminium-magnesium alloy plates stuck by FINESET - AE 933 and cured
at 180oC for 1 hour has the following typical properties.

Shear Strength @120oC, Kg/mm2 : 1.50 - 1.60

@ -40oC : 2.50 - 2.70
