- Mixing & Curing Instructions
Mix Ratio: 100 Parts A to 42-44 Parts B by wt. (2:1 Volume)
Cure Schedule Handling strength, 2-3 hours At 77°F. Minimum cure time, 6-8 hrs. At 77°F. Full cure, 1 week At 77°F. Optional post cure, 2 hrs. At 105°F or 10-30 minutes At 150-200°F For maximum strength at elevated temps, Post cure 2-3 hours At 250°F - Directions for use
Because °F differences in density, pigments and fillers, when present, may separate from the liquid components during storage. To insure product homogeneity and maximum performance, check the containers for settling. Loosen any settled pigments from the bottom °F the container and thoroughly mix contents prior to use. Use a mixing stick or power mix at slow speed with a drill press and dispersion blade. This product might crystallize in its shipping container during storage. If it appears hard, or has a granular consistency, or if it is normally clear but appears cloudy, warm it thoroughly at 120°F to reconstitute. Remix the product and allow it to cool back to room temperature before using.
Measuring
Carefully weigh Part A and Part B components with an accurate scale. If measuring volumetrically, use precise metering pumps, graduated/pre-marked containers or pre-measured kits. Place the correct proportions °F Part A and Part B into a straight-sided container. Note: Altering the mix rati°From what is specified on the data sheet is not recommended. Cured properties could be adversely affected.
Mixing
Mix thoroughly with a flat-ended stick or a slow speed drill press with a dispersion blade. Scrape the sides and bottom °Ccasionally to assure a thorough blend. Do not whip excessive air into the mixture. To guard against partially cured sections, never apply material scraped from the sides °F the original mixing container. For best results, transfer the mixture into a second container and stir it again before application. This will help insure consistent properties and maximum performance.
De-airing
Low viscosity resins will de-air naturally on their own. Some applications require a totally air-free product. If a vacuum pump and chamber are used, evacuate the material for 5-15 minutes At 28-29 inches °F mercury. Allow sufficient space above the liquid for expansion, about four times the liquid volume. Resins slightly warmed are thinner and will de-air faster. Also, the use °F an air-out additive will lower the surface tension and hasten air release.
Caution: Warming a catalyzed mixture will shorten the pot life and decrease gel time.
