Applications & Uses

Processing

Processing	Consistency	Non-sagging
		Pasty
	Surface requirements	Dry
		Clean
		free of grease
	Surface cleaning	Körasolv GL
		Körasolv PU
		Körasolv WL
	Adhesion promoter (absorbing surface)	Körabond HG 74 E
	Adhesion promoter (non absorbing surface)	Körabond HG 81
	Product overpaintability	after skin formation (depending on paint)
Cleaning	Cleaner for tools	Körasolv GL
		Körasolv PU
Hints	Resistance against UV radiation	Not suitable for glass bonding with permanent UV radiation to the bonding area.
	Stress cracking	Preliminary tests must be carried out on plastics with a tendency to stress cracking. (PMMA, ABS, PC or PS)
	Compatibility with polystyrene foams	Not suitable for bonding polystyrene foams.
	Avoid contact with isocyanate reactive substances	Avoid direct contact with isocyanate reactive substances, especially alcohol such as spirit, dilutions, cleaning compounds and fission products of silane-modified polymers or silicones until the adhesive has attained full cure. This will prevent the adhesive from curing properly.

• Low temperatures can cause a temporary increase in viscosity resulting in reduced extrusion and slower curing rates.
• Cleaning: Clean tools immediately after use. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. Appropriate cleaners are listed in the product properties table.
• Dimensioning: The required thickness of the adhesive layer depends on the expected maximum strength and joint movement. We recommend a minimum layer thickness of 2 mm.
