Additional information
This product is not recommended for use in contact with strong oxidizing materials and polar solvents although will withstand a solvent wash without any bond strength deterioration. Users are reminded that all materials, whether innocuous or not, should be handled in accordance with the principles of good industrial hygiene. Full information can be obtained from the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Directions for use:
1) Make sure the surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry and grease-free before applying the adhesive.
2) Dispense a drop or drops to one surface only.
3) Bring the components to together quickly and correctly aligned.
4) Apply sufficient pressure to ensure the adhesive spreads into a thin film.
5) Do not disturb or re-align until sufficient strength is achieved.
6) Allow adhesive to cure for 15 - 20 minutes minimum before processing.
Debonding Methods
Ultrasonic Immersion Debonding:
1) Mix a 10% to 15% solution of detergent and water.
2) Heat solution to 80°C to 88°C for best results.
3) Use an ultrasonic tank having a power rating of 13W/l minimum for best results. Consult an ultrasonic tank supplier for the most efficient tank, depending on part and holder mass.
4) Place an adequate amount of solution in ultrasonic tank to cover area where debonding is required.
5) For maximum exposure, parts may be suspended in solution.
6) Ultrasonically vibrate parts until debonding occurs, generally within five minutes. Debonding time varies with type of mass materials, ultrasonic power and solution temperature.
7) Periodically verify solution pH is greater than 10.
Heat Debonding:
1) Place parts in a radiant heat oven or induction heat until bondline temperature reaches 135°C. Parts should be separated at elevated temperature.
2) If excess adhesive remains, clean parts with acetone.
Clean-up
When large quantities of cyanoacrylate adhesive are accidentally spilled, the area should be flooded with water which will cause the liquid cyanoacrylate to cure. The cured material can then be scraped from the surface
Storage
Keep in a cool area out of direct sunlight. Refrigeration to 2-8℃ gives optimum storage stability. When stored in a refrigerator, allow the adhesive to gradually warm to room temperature prior to use. It will prevent condensation inside the bottle which can reduce shelf life. Containers should be tightly sealed when not in use. Product removed from containers may be contaminated during use. Do not pour back any product to the original container. Misuse of product will void all warrantees. The shelf-life is 12 months from date of manufacture.
