An increase in temperature generally leads to an increase in the thermal conductivity of epoxy resin. This is because at higher temperatures, the molecules in the resin vibrate more vigorously, allowing for better heat transfer between them. However, this relationship may not hold true for all types of epoxy resins, as factors like filler content and composition can also influence thermal conductivity.
An epoxy adhesive designed for metal surfaces is typically the best choice for bonding metal to metal. Epoxy adhesives provide strong and durable bonds that are resistant to high temperatures and can withstand heavy loads. Be sure to prepare the surfaces to be bonded properly for the best results.
You can repair a hairline crack in a Dyson vacuum cleaner using an epoxy adhesive that is suitable for plastic surfaces. Clean the area around the crack, apply the epoxy according to the manufacturer's instructions, and let it dry completely before using the vacuum cleaner again. Make sure the crack is properly sealed to prevent any further damage.
Non-slippery surfaces include rubber, cork, carpet, grippy tiles, and non-slip coatings such as epoxy or textured paints. These materials provide traction to prevent slips and falls.
Heat is beneficial to the fast setting and strength of most epoxy glues. I heat all my epoxies gently in a tin lid before mixing - if this mix is applied to a warm surface it sets extremely hard and strong. Some other glues may not work so well in heat, and in fact almost all silicon glues work best if cold water is run over them while curing.
A strong adhesive like hot glue or epoxy resin would work well to stick something to a Styrofoam ball. Be cautious with any adhesive that contains solvents, as they could damage the Styrofoam.

The mould temperature of epoxy resin is very much dependant on the type of epoxy.. some resins cure at ambient temperature, some have to be cured at temperatures up to 180ºC/350F. This should be on the product documentation. Generally, the higher the cure temperature, the higher service temperature is allowed.
Specific heat capacity of epoxy resin depends on chemical structure of epoxy resin and range of temperature of measurements. Usually at 25 deg.C specific heat capacity of epoxy resins is 0.8-1.2 kJ/(kg*K). The specific capacity is growing with temperature, roughly increasing 1.5 times by 100 deg.C.
Ultra high temperature epoxy resin is a type of epoxy resin that can withstand extreme temperatures up to 600F or higher. It has excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and mechanical strength, making it suitable for applications in aerospace, automotive, electronics, and industrial sectors. Key properties include high heat resistance, good adhesion, and low shrinkage. It is commonly used for bonding, coating, and encapsulating components in high temperature environments.
To speed up the drying process of epoxy, you can increase the temperature of the environment, use a heat gun or hair dryer, or add a catalyst to the epoxy mixture. These methods can help the epoxy cure faster and harden more quickly.
To tint epoxy for a desired color effect, mix in a small amount of epoxy pigment or dye until the desired color is achieved. Experiment with different amounts to achieve the desired shade, and always follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific product being used.
It relates to the Graphite content and the quality of your graphite. for 50% loading, 5W/mK is possible. It increase with increasing the graphite content, for 80% loading might be about 7W/mK. 10W/mK is also attainable for some special kinds of graphite including graphene nanoplatelets.

To dry epoxy properly for the best results, follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, ensure the area is well-ventilated, and allow the epoxy to cure at the recommended temperature and humidity levels. Avoid touching or disturbing the epoxy during the drying process to prevent imperfections.
To ensure maximum durability and strength of your project when hardening epoxy, follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, mix the epoxy components thoroughly, apply the epoxy in the recommended temperature range, and allow sufficient curing time before handling or using the project.
Yes, epoxy will stick to cured epoxy.
if you mean for epoxy powder coating, the normal curing temperature is 200 cercius and 10 minutes. or you can refer table below. 5 minutes at 399º F 10 minutes at 375º F 15 minutes at 320º F
