Processing Information

Preparation

  • For some substrates the use of mechanical pretreatment and/or cleaner or primer is necessary to achieve good adhesion. Refer to the product properties section of this data sheet for special surface requirements and suitable adhesion promoters.

Processing

  • parameters. 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. For further information please contact your local sales office.

Hints Moisture Sensitivity

The adhesive must not be exposed to moisture before and during application.
Moisture causes foaming leading to lower mechanical properties.
