Applications & Uses

Industrial Usage

Stir well the contents of each container every time before removing material. If the contents are hard or lumpy, warm to 80°C and mix thoroughly before removing material.
1. Weigh each 100 grams of EC-1009 to 10 grams of Hardener EH-21.
2. Mix until uniform. Scrape the sides and bottom of container repeatedly during mixing.
3. Apply to clean bonding surfaces and cure as recommended to achieve the desired properties.
4. Typical cured properties were determined using recommended cure schedule. Some difference in properties may occur with the alternate or other cure schedules.

Industrial Usage

Practices of good housekeeping, safety and cleanliness should be followed before, during and after use.
