Applications & Uses

Application Area
Suitable Substrates

Pre-treatment of bonding surfaces:

  • Bonding surfaces have to be clean, dry and free of grease and oil.
  • Polyolefin materials have to be corona-pre-treated or flame-treated.

Preparation:

  • Drum unloader, heating plate and applicator gun can, as a rule, be set to different temperatures.
  • Excessive heat may cause decomposition of the adhesive.
  • Depending on the construction of the equipment, a temperature of 110°C is enough for the heating plate.
  • Due to the short operation time, the application equipment may be run at temperatures of up to 140°C.
  • For tank melters only protective gasses with <5ppm humidity should be used.
  • Positive results have been achieved with nitrogen.
  • Please take care of that packages are used immediately after opening to prevent possible reactions with moisture.

Adhesive application:

  • It is either applied in beads or tapes or as a sheet onto one of the bonding surfaces.
  • Bonding is carried out immediately upon application.

Special attention:

  • Final cure is achieved by reaction with ambient moisture or moisture from the substrate.
  • Curing time depends on the access of humidity to the bonding seam, i.e. the humidity of the substrate, substrate permeability, adhesive film thickness, relative air humidity and ambient temperature.
  • Average curing time for bonding onto wooden materials at a temperature of +20°C and relative humidity of 65% amounts to up to 3 – 4 days.
  • If large surfaces and/or impermeable materials are bonded under unfavorable climatic conditions, the curing time maybe considerably longer.
