The special distinguishing feature of Kulzer Technovit® 5071 is that it can be re-dissolved chemically. This enables the resin to be removed from samples that require further analysis without the encapsulating resin following sample preparation. Kulzer Technovit® 5071 can be dissolved with acetone, trichloroethylene or dichloromethane. Kulzer Technovit® 5071 is suitable for use in SEMs. With its excellent surface wettability and adhesive properties Kulzer Technovit® 5071 can be used as an adhesive for metals and can also be used for the application of strain gauges to a variety of materials.
Kulzer Technovit® 5071 is versatile and suitable for routine embedding work due to the range of mixing ratios and fast polymerization time (4 – 6 minutes). It can be mixed at ratios of 1:1 up to 3:1 of powder/liquid depending on the respective requirements and the required flow properties. A mixing ratio of 2:1 is generally recommended. Handling time after mixing is 2 minutes at 22° C.

Kulzer Technovit® 2000 Light Cure LC is a single component blue light curing resin that provides high transparency mounts cured at up to 90° C for a 1" / 25mm mount in as little as 20 minutes using the Kulzer Technotray® POWER Light Curing module. For temperature sensitive components, the polymerization generated heat can be lessened to about 50° C by pouring and curing thin successive layers over a longer time period along with power cycling the blue light. Kulzer Technovit® 2000 Light Cure LC comes in a 1 liter bottle. An 80ml sample bottle is also available but will need a 430-490nm blue light source for polymerization, such as the Kulzer Technotray® POWER Light Curing Unit below. Best used with clear polyethylene molds.

Kulzer Technovit® Provil is a self-mixing, low-viscosity silicone impressioning system. Useful for applications such as field metallography, these products come in either light blue or black and can be used to replicate surfaces with <0.1µm deviation. The impression can be cast without loss of surface infomation. Provil products are flexible when cured and leave no residue when removed. Once mixed, the silicone cures quickly at room temperature so mixing cannulas and tips should be considered as consumables.
Kits (#813-710 or #813-716) each contain two cartridges of resin, 12 mixing cannulas, and tips. The Mixing Gun is sold separately.
