Instructions for Use

Mixing

Combine Part A and Part B in a 1:1 mix ratio prior to use. Airless mixing, metering or dispensing equipment is recommended for production operations. If mixing by hand, take care to minimize air entrapment.

Vacuum Deaeration

Remove air entrapped during mixing by common vacuum deaeration procedure, observing all applicable safety precautions. Slowly apply full vacuum to a suitable container of at least four times the volume of material being de-aired. Hold vacuum until bulk deaeration is complete.

Cure Inhibition

Curing may be inhibited by traces of amines, sulfur, nitrogen oxide, organotin compounds, and carbon monoxide. Because organic rubbers often contain these substances, they should not come in contact with the uncured elastomer. Catalyst residues from silicone RTV elastomers and peroxide-cured silicone elastomers may also inhibit the cure.
