Fiber-optic adhesive

tra-bond F118 is an impact-resistant fiber-optic adhesive for use in any optical connector for terminating, potting, or sealing applications. It is a high-viscosity and non-dripping material, according to the manufacturer. The adhesive may be cured overnight at room temperature, in one hour at 65C, or in 15 min at 90C. Overnight curing is suitable for both multimode and singlemode connectors where excessive curing temperatures may cause cracking. The adhesive is provided in a dark blue color for easy polishing. The adhesive is available in 2 g and larger BIPAXs and pre-mixed and frozen syringes.
