- For applications requiring a broader operating temperature range
- Instructions for Use
Mixing
Stir base prior to curing agent addition. Thoroughly mix 0.5% by weight of curing agent to base by weight. Use of a pipette is recommended for dispensing small amounts of the curing agent. Caution: The curing agent may cause skin irritation. In case of eye contact, irrigate with water immediately and seek medical attention.
Vacuum Deaeration
Remove air entrapped during mixing by common vacuum deaeration procedure, observing all applicable safety precautions. Slowly apply full vacuum to a container rated for use and at least four times the volume of the material being deaerated. Hold vacuum until bulk deaeration is complete.
Note: Some bonding applications may require the use of a primer. NuSil Technology SP-120 silicone primer is recommended.
Adjustable Cure
Schedule Product cures at a wide range of cure times and temperatures to accommodate different production needs.
