MIXING INSTRUCTION

1.      Mix the contents of EP 333 in its original container.

2.      Weigh out required amount of Epusil EP 333

3.        Weigh into EP 333 appropriate curing agent in the following mix ratio:
EPC 9 – 5 to 6 parts per 100 parts of EP 333
EPC 11 – 7 to 8 parts per 100 parts of EP 333

EPC 333 10.5- 10.7 parts per 100 parts of EP 333

4.      Mix thoroughly, being careful to scrap sides and bottom of container to ensure

 proper blending.

5.      Evacuate for 5 to 10 minuet if required.

6.       Pour into cavity or mold.

CURE SCHDULE

EPC 9 - Cure 2 to 3 hours at room temperature or accelerated cure times is possible

with higher temperature but only after first degree of curing for small mass casting.

EPC 11 - Cure for 4 to 5 hours, then at 750C for 2 to 3 hours and post cure of 2 to 3

hours at 1300C. For large mass cure at room temperature until it gels and

than post cure at 800C for 2 hrs, 100, 1300 C up to 1500Cfor 2 to 3 hours in accordance.
