Let\u2019s say you have a curing oven already set at 140\u00b0C (284\u00b0F) it isn\u2019t too difficult to guess that cure will take 50 to 55 mins.<\/p>\n<p>One part epoxies, (also called single part epoxies, one component epoxies, \u00a01K or 1-C or <a href=\"https:\/\/permabond.com\/products\/epoxies-single-part\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">heat cured epoxy<\/a>) contain latent hardeners.\u00a0 Latent hardeners are mixed into the epoxy resin and have very limited reactivity at ambient temperature.\u00a0 They react at elevated temperatures to cure the epoxy adhesive.<\/p>\n<h2>One Part Epoxies and Cure Temperature<\/h2>\n<p>Although the epoxy adhesive products <a href=\"https:\/\/permabond.com\/products\/epoxies-single-part\/\">Single component epoxy<\/a> and cure schedules can be modified to meet specific requirements, standard minimum threshold to achieve cure is 107\u00b0C.\u00a0 Low cure temperature epoxies have been developed that reduce that threshold to 80\u00b0C.\u00a0 The maximum curing temperature for heat activated one part epoxies is 300\u00b0C.\u00a0 As you likely guessed, higher cure temperatures require shorter cure time.<\/p>\n<h2>Note Epoxy Adhesive Temperature &amp; Time<\/h2>\n<p>Technical data sheets will provide cure time \/ temperature guidance for single component epoxy.\u00a0 It is important to know that the times listed generally indicate the length of time the adhesive is at temperature.\u00a0 There can be a significant difference between the time the assembly goes into the oven and the time the epoxy adhesive reaches the desired temperature \u2013 especially on large assemblies or assemblies with adhesive at the center.\u00a0 Similarly, filling a hot oven with cold metal parts will temporarily reduce the oven temperature.<\/p>\n<h2>Curing Single Component Epoxy: Heat Sources<\/h2>\n<p>Induction curing is likely the fastest way to cure <a href=\"https:\/\/permabond.com\/products\/epoxies-single-part\/\">single component epoxy<\/a>.\u00a0 The metal part itself is exposed to current and heats.\u00a0 Cure is generally accomplished in &lt;3 minutes. For some, this is a very efficient cure method.\u00a0 Other heat sources include the traditional conventional oven, as well as infrared lamps, hot plates, or hot-air guns.<\/p>\n<h2>Free Flowing and Non Sag Epoxy Adhesive<\/h2>\n<p>In addition to time and temperature, viscosity and rheology of the epoxy adhesive should be considered.\u00a0 Single component epoxy is designed to either stay in place during the cure process or to flow as they begin to warm before they start to set.\u00a0 Flow characteristics range from products with no flow (often called Non Sag) to products that are free flowing as they approach cure temperature to a variety of controlled flow products in between.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/permabond.com\/contact-us\">Contact us<\/a>\u00a0for more information on one
