HYSOL® DK15-0463

Epoxy Coating Powder Formerly Dexter

Description Hysol

® DK15-0463 is an epoxy based coating powder developed for the insulation of low voltage bus

bars. It offers improved moisture resistance when compared to other DK15 series products. It also provides smooth surface appearance with high edge coverage properties. DK15-0463 also carries UL recognition for 130°C operating temperatures. Particle size distribution is tailored for application via a fluid bed process.
