Epotek OG142-87 is a low-viscosity UV epoxy for precision optical work. It suits lens bonding, optical fibre alignment, LCD assembly and shallow potting of medical sensors and devices.

Key Features of Epotek OG142-87 UV Epoxy

• UV plus thermal dual cure
• Shore D hardness of 82
• Perfect for lens and fibre bonding

Dual-Cure Capability

A standout feature is its dual-cure capability. It cures rapidly under UV light. In addition, a secondary thermal post-cure completes polymerisation in shadowed areas that UV light cannot reach.

Stable and Moisture Resistant

Once fully cured to Shore D 82, it offers excellent environmental stability and moisture resistance. As a result, it suits the solar and opto-packaging industries.

Storage

To protect its chemistry and keep a 12-month shelf life, store this adhesive at 5 to 10°C. So always keep it in controlled cold storage.

Why Choose This UV Epoxy?

Epotek OG142-87 works well for glob top filling and critical fibre optic joins. For example, it delivers the reliability and precision that advanced technical sectors demand.

Because the thermal post-cure reaches shadowed areas, you also get a complete cure even on complex parts. That helps prevent weak spots in the bond.
