United Resin is proud to announce the launch of EL-CAST VFR PLUS, a cutting-edge epoxy resin system that offers superior flame resistance and sets a higher standard for fire safety in industrial applications. Electronic devices may catch fire due to a variety of reasons, such as overheating, electrical shorts, flammable materials used in their construction, or external factors like moisture or heat.
United Resin’s new flame-resistant epoxy resin system can help mitigate these risks by providing enhanced flame resistance. The new product achieves a 0-second AfterFlame with 117 Hardener, and has no flame drip, making it an ideal solution for potting and encapsulating electronic components. EL-CAST VFR PLUS epoxy systems with different hardeners also achieve excellent flame resistance.
“At United Resin, we always strive for improvement and excellence, by continuously working towards product development and research to provide our customers with the best solutions possible.

In addition to its excellent flame-resistant properties, this advanced solution provides superior bonding capabilities, a high-gloss finish, excellent vibration dampening, and minimal shrinkage. EL-CAST VFR PLUS with 0-second AfterFlame uses 117 Hardener and is a soft (75A durometer) system. It is the ideal solution for potting and encapsulating a wide range of electronic components, such as alarm systems, transformers, filters, magnetic components, dimmer switches, and surge protectors. Its low viscosity and high-temperature properties make it easy to work with and well-suited for a variety of industrial applications. Other hardeners are available offering additional properties.
