Color-changing epoxy

April 1, 1996

A fast-curing high-temperature epoxy, Tra-Bond F1-2-3 has a three-ste¥color-change feature that signals proper curing. The epoxy is designed for bonding fiberoptic bundles, potting glass fibers, and terminating single- and multimode fiberoptic components. Each component of the epoxy is light yellow before mixing, light green when first mixed, then dee¥reddish-amber after curing. The epoxy meets Belcore specifications and military standards.
