Alternative filling material

[Goaty]

What about powder from styrodur plates instead of microballoons?

What is styrodur? I'm assuming it's expanded polystyrene.

Costs nothing and is light.

Somebody wrote that hot glue is heavier than epoxy, but i just saw that hotglue has a density of 0,98 g/cm³.
Epoxy has about 1,2 g/cm³, i think i will use hotglue for my second coil.

Are you use it for pulse technology MD only or also for VLF?

hi used it on ;pi coils both mono and ib, and used it to refill an old whites coil after repair(vlf).

Actually it's the same stuff. Just thickened. Plasti Dip does contain Methyl Ethyl Ketone that likes to eat some plastics but I've not found it a issue using thin coatings.

None Conductive. Can also be used as protective coating on under side of coil housing like coil skid cover.

Yes, probably this "Plasti Dip" suit better to our coil potting needs:

Nice. Do you know something about isolative/conductive properties of Plasti Dip?

[homefire]

Short CUT.

Poor a little in the housing apply with brush. Let Cure. Keep adding layers until your happy.

Does the epoxy resin interact with the aluminium foil shielding?
I have heard that the resin contains NaOH and its corrosive for aluminium.

How about a filling material for pi coil?? Im looking for a bit heavy so that my coil will not float in water. Epoxy seems to ruins the coil performance.
