I know that microwaves are sometimes used to cure epoxy but does cured epoxy absorb microwaves? More practically put: can I use epoxy to glue some parts of a double quad for 2.4GHz? Your best source of information here will be the manufacturer. Next best will be to put a test object (made of things that don't absorb microwaves) glued with the epoxy in your microwave with a cup of water and heat it until the water boils. If the test object isn't uncomfortably hot, the epoxy probably is OK for use in your quad. Microwave ovens here in the US seem to run around 2.45 GHz, which is fairly close to your working frequency, so the test will be a fairly good indication. -- Mike Andrews, W5EGO Tired old sysadmin |
