- Application Area
- Applications
- For applications requiring low outgassing and minimal volatile condensables under extreme operating conditions to avoid condensation in sensitive devices
- As a sealing, caulking, adhesive or potting material in electronic and space applications where high vacuum environments are encountered
- For bonding solar cells to solar array panels
- For applications requiring a broader operating temperature range
- Instructions for Use
Mixing
Thoroughly mix 0.5% by weight of curing agent to base. 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 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 dearation is complete.
Note: Some bonding applications may require the use of a primer. NuSil Technology SP-121 silicone primer is recommended.
