Mixing for 10 minutes at 1050 rpm and 10 minutes at 2000 rpm and then the
mixture degases for 30 minutes at 90C in a vacuum oven to eliminate entrap
air and humidity.
Liquid system pour in mould and cure at 160C and 180C respectively for 90
mins and 120 mins, according to the curing schedule sheet of the neat epoxy
