ARALDITE 502 KIT 950M, W/BDMA

Araldite 502 Embedding Kits

The Araldite 502 kit with BDMA accelerator is equally efficient as the same kit using DMP-30. BDMA has a lower viscosity and diffuses more rapidly into tissues, porous specimens and rough surfaces. The Araldite 502 resins have better beam stability than the Eponate resins. BDMA is used in 3% concentrations versus 1.5 to 2% for DMP-30. Araldite kit may be used alone or mixed with other epoxies. Curing times are 16 to 24 hours at a temperature of 60°C or 2 to 3 hours using the PELCO BioWave®.
