To ensure consistent performance, product temperatures must be held reasonably constant between 65°F (18°C) and 80°F (27°C). Substrate preparation, adhesive/activator ratio, application temperature, humidity and a variety of other environmental and end user application factors are beyond the control of IPS Adhesives; therefore, the end user is solely responsible for determining whether the product is fit for a specific purpose and suitable for the user’s product, design and final application requirements.

Storage & Handling
- Handling and Applications
SCIGRIP® SG7706 adhesive (Part A) and activator (Part B) are flammable. Contents include Methacrylate ester and acids. Keep containers closed after use. Wear gloves and safety glasses to avoid skin and eye contact. Wash with soap and water after skin contact. In case of eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes and get medical attention. Harmful if swallowed. Keep out of the reach of children. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Do not smoke cigarettes or anything else while handling or near the product. Refer to the SG7706 Material Safety Data Sheet for more complete safety instruction. To assure maximum bond strength, surfaces must be mated together within the specified working time, and all clamps affixed within that time. Use sufficient material to ensure that the joint is completely filled when parts are mated and clamped. Avoid over clamping parts, which may cause a dry joint or a joint starved of adhesive. All adhesive application, part positioning, fixturing, and clamping should occur before the working time of the adhesive has expired. After the indicated working time, parts must remain undisturbed until the fixture time is completed. Components bonded, adhesive, and shop temperature can have a significant effect on the work and fixture time of the adhesive. Application of SG7706 adhesive at temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C and 30°C) will ensure proper cure. Temperatures below 65°F (18°C) will slow cure and fixture speed. SG7706 adhesives will still react, but will take longer. Temperatures above 85°F (18°C and 30°C) will increase cure and fixture speeds, and there’s a risk that the adhesive will be hardened or too thick to bond materials. The viscosities of SG7706 adhesives are affected by temperature. NOTE: Because of the rapid curing features of SG7706 adhesives, large amounts of heat are generated when large masses of material are mixed at one time. The heat generated by the exotherm resulting from mixing large amounts of adhesive can result in a boiling of the monomer in the adhesive (methyl methacrylate), resulting in the release of trapped air, steam and volatile gasses. To prevent this, use only enough material as needed for use within the working time for the product, and confine the gap or spread out the material to no more than .250 inches
- Shelf Life And Storage Conditions
The shelf life of adhesive and activator in unopened containers is six (6) months from the date of shipment to you from IPS Adhesives unless otherwise explicitly stated. Shelf life is based on a continuous, steady state storage temperature of between 65°F (18°C) and 80°F (27°C). Exposure to temperatures below 65°F (18°C) or above 80°F (27°C) will impact the product performance and viscosity. Exposure to temperatures above 80°F (27°C) will rapidly reduce the stated shelf life of the product.
