The LE-9215/LH-9215 is a high-performance epoxy system for medium/high-voltage electrical insulation (12-40.5kV). Featuring modified BPA epoxy resin (LE-9215) and anhydride hardener (LH-9215), it delivers exceptional thermal shock resistance, superior dielectric strength, and H-class thermal endurance (180°C). Optimized for vacuum casting and APG processes in contact boxes, insulators, and switchgear.

Q1: What’s the optimal silica filler ratio?
A: Adjust between 300-400 pbw – higher ratios enhance strength but increase viscosity.
Q2: How does this system handle thermal cycling?
A: Excellent thermal shock resistance due to low shrinkage (0.8-1.0%) and high Tg (105-120°C).
Q3: What curing process is recommended?
A:Vacuum Casting: Cure @70-80°C/3-5h → 90-100°C/2-4h → Post-cure 130°C/12h
APG: Post-cure @130-150°C/10-12h after molding.
Q4: Is color customization possible?
A: Yes! LC series color pastes can be added (3 pbw recommended).
Q5: Why choose HB flammability rating?
A: HB classification balances safety and cost for 12-40.5kV indoor applications.
