Epoxies, Etc... has two Flame Retardant epoxies listed with Underwriters Laboratory (UL). The 20-3651\40 FR and 50-3150 FR Epoxy Potting Compounds have been tested and passed UL 94 VO.

The UL 94 VO test uses a 1/2" x 5" specimen which is held at one end in the vertical position. A burner flame is applied to the free end of the specimen for two 10 second intervals separated by the time it takes for flaming combustion to cease after the first application. Two sets of 5 specimens are tested. Cotton is placed below the flame end of the cotton. The following are recorded for each specimen:

  • Duration of flaming combustion after the first burner flame application.
  • Duration of flaming combustion after second burner flame application.
  • Duration of glowing combustion after second burner flame application.
  • Whether or not flaming drips ignite cotton placed below specimen.
  • Whether or not specimen burns up to holding clamp.
