Application Details

WACKER® CROSSLINKER V 58 is used in thermal curing of addition-crosslinking solvent-based and solvent-free DEHESIVE® systems.

Processing

Batches of coating compound must be prepared in the order given below.

  1. First pour in CRA® Modifier in case CRA® is used.
  2. Add DEHESIVE® polymer in several portions and stir slowly until the mixture is homogeneous.
  3. Thoroughly stir in WACKER® CROSSLINKER V 58 to this mixture.
  4. Slowly stir in catalyst. Local over-concentrations needs to be avoided. Any contact to alkaline systems needs to be avoided.

Safety Notes

Siloxane Crosslinkers should never get into direct contact with concentrated Platinum Catalysts or Alkaline Systems, since this may cause a spontaneous, uncontrolled emission of hydrogen. The formation of hydrogen might lead together with air to the explosive mixtures.
