Pre treatment - Clean the surface of the adhered or coated material, use cleaning agents to remove rust, dust, oil stains, etc.
Temperature recovery - Single component epoxy adhesive needs to be stored at low temperature if not used for a long time. Before use, remove the product from the refrigerator and avoid opening it immediately. It should be left at room temperature for about 2 hours to recover to room temperature before use (the recovery time depends on the size of the packaging and the environmental atmosphere). Before opening and using, wipe off any water stains outside the packaging can to prevent moisture from entering the adhesive and affecting its quality. If you need to speed up the reheating time, you can use circulating water for reheating, but pay attention to waterproofing or put the glue in an oven for reheating, but the oven temperature cannot exceed 30 ℃.
Glue application - Apply glue directly onto the surface of the object to be bonded that has undergone degreasing, rust removal, and roughening treatment. Select appropriate tools to assist in applying glue, fix it with fixtures, and then place it in equipment that has reached the required curing temperature for curing. For sealing applications, there is no need for fixation, just heat and cure directly.
Curing - Cure according to the curing conditions required by the TDS of the product, and the curing time refers to the duration after the adhesive temperature reaches the corresponding temperature. Therefore, for objects with slow heat transfer such as large volume and deep depth, due to the relationship of heat transfer rate, the curing temperature should be moderately increased or the curing time should be extended to fully cure the adhesive solution. During the curing process, if too much glue is applied or the temperature is too high, bubbles may form. In such cases, please lower the curing temperature appropriately.
Cleaning - When using epoxy resin, it is recommended to use disposable containers and utensils. When disposable materials cannot be used, solvent cleaning equipment can be used to remove uncured adhesive. Solvent cleaning tools should be thoroughly dried before reuse; Any residual solvent will cause contamination to subsequent operations.
Storage and Shelf Life
This product is a non hazardous material, stored in a sealed container away from light and heat. It is stored in an unopened original container at -5 ℃ and has a shelf life of 6 months. The shelf life is marked on the label of each product's outer packaging. Products that have exceeded their shelf life must be tested for normal performance before they can be put into use.
Attention: As this product is a chemical product that reacts when heated, environmental temperature has a significant impact on product quality. Please store the product in a low-temperature environment to ensure its stability and quality. If the colloid is not used up after removal, please seal it tightly in a timely manner and store it in a frozen environment again.
Precautions
1. Single component epoxy adhesive is sensitive to temperature during the curing process. The above curing time refers to the duration after the adhesive temperature reaches the corresponding temperature. If the adhesive temperature does not reach the required temperature, the curing time of the adhesive may be very long, or even not cured. For objects with slow heat transfer such as large volume and deep depth, due to the relationship of heat transfer rate, the curing temperature should be moderately increased or the curing time should be extended to fully cure the adhesive solution. During the curing process, if too much glue is applied or the temperature is too high, bubbles may form. In such cases, please lower the curing temperature appropriately.
2. When using, try to avoid direct contact with the skin. A very small number of people may experience mild skin allergies and itching if they come into contact with the adhesive solution for a long time. It is recommended to wear protective gloves when using it. If it sticks to the skin, please wipe it off with acetone or alcohol and clean it with detergent or soap.
3. Long term direct sunlight or ultraviolet radiation should be avoided, which may cause a decrease in the quality of the adhesive or render it unusable after self reaction.
4. Do not expose to outdoor humid and hot conditions to avoid quality problems caused by moisture intrusion.
