Araldite® 2020 — Transparent Epoxy Adhesive for Glass and Ceramics

Araldite 2020 is a two-component epoxy adhesive with low viscosity, cured at room temperature (XW 396 resin + XW 397 hardener). It is the usual reference in conservation-restoration for bonding glass and ceramics, where the bond line needs to be as invisible as possible.

What is it used for?

  • Bonding glass: fragments, clean breaks, joints that need to be discreet
  • Bonding ceramics and porcelain in object restoration
  • Joints in stone and stone materials
  • Assemblies requiring permanent strength

Before using: it is not reversible

A cured epoxy cannot be removed with a solvent like an acrylic resin. Removing a cured Araldite 2020 requires mechanical intervention or aggressive solvents, with risk to the original. Only use it when the bond must be permanent and you have ruled out a reversible alternative, for example Paraloid B-72. It is a decision of judgment, not convenience.

Presentation and Storage

  • 500g kit: 385g of component A (2020/A, resin) + 115g of component B (2020/B, hardener)
  • Mixing ratio 100:30 by weight
  • Two-component product: do not mix more quantity than will be applied
  • Work with ventilation and gloves
  • Keep closed, in a dry and cool place

Frequently asked questions

Can it be removed later?
Not in the conventional sense. A cured epoxy does not reverse with solvent like an acrylic; its removal involves mechanical means or aggressive solvents. If you need reversibility, the way is an acrylic resin like Paraloid B-72.
Why 385g and 115g, and not half of each?
Because the mixing ratio is 100:30 by weight. The kit is dosed so that when the resin is used up, the hardener is also finished.
Is it suitable for metal or plastic?
Epoxies of this family are used on metals, ceramics, and rigid plastics, but in restoration, their most cited use is for glass and ceramics. For a specific substrate, write to us and we'll look into it.
