Permabond ET5011 is an optically clear 2K epoxy for encapsulation, embedding and visible applications — remains transparent after curing, ideal for decoration and potting.
Unlike standard industrial epoxies, ET5011 is optimized for optical clarity — the cured bond remains transparent like glass and is suitable for both visible bonding and encapsulation of components.
The 100:94 weight ratio provides a balanced processing and strength profile. ET5011 is often used for jewelry, display, and decorative applications.
Optically clear 2-component epoxy for encapsulation and embedding — remains transparent after curing. Ideal for decorative bonding, potting, jewelry design, and visible applications requiring clarity.

Frequently asked questions about Permabond ET5011
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
Optically clear 2-component epoxy – for embedding, encapsulation, and decorative applications. The 2-component epoxy is mixed in a 100:94 weight ratio and offers a pot life of —.
Mix both components in a 100:94 ratio by weight — using a mixing nozzle for dual cartridges, weigh precisely for larger containers. Apply within the pot life (—) and join components. Full curing typically occurs after — at room temperature.
The pot life of Permabond ET5011 is typically — at 23 °C. Higher temperatures shorten, lower temperatures lengthen the pot life. Mixtures above approximately 100 g may gel more quickly due to an exothermic reaction.
Permabond ET5011 typically bonds metals, composites, and plastics. For substrate-specific values, see the Technical Data Sheet (TDS).
Permabond ET5011 does not have specific industry-related approvals such as EU 10/2011 (food), UL94 (fire protection), or Boeing/Airbus (aerospace). For general industrial applications, the product is approved according to Permabond standards.
Permabond ET5011 is an optically clear 2-component epoxy for embedding and encapsulation (100:94 parts by weight mix, pot life). Permabond ET505 is clear amber (1:1, pot life) – amber-colored instead of clear.
From the Permabond 2K epoxy range, select according to application, mixing ratio, and strength requirements: Permabond ET5011 (Optically clear 2K epoxy — for embedding and encapsulation); Permabond ET505 (Clear amber); Permabond ET514 (Standard high strength); Permabond ET515 (Aerospace flexible). For aerospace applications, see ET515 (Aircraft Seat Trays); for food applications, see ET5162 (EU 10/2011 + FDA); for thermal conductivity/fire protection, see ET5441 (UL94-V0).
