Product Applications
  • Lower temperatures than recommended can cause higher viscosity which result in reduced bond strength and reduced wetting.
  • Depending on the construction of the equipment, a continuous heat- ing above processing temperature can cause decomposition of the adhesive.
  • Tank melters should use pro- tective gases with < 5 ppm humidity, only.
  • Clean tools immediately after use. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically.
