Remove oil, grease and other contaminants by wiping with isopropyl alcohol.*For fiber reinforced plastics and other materials that are often contaminated with mold release agents, it is recommended that the surface be solvent wiped, abraded and solvent-wiped.* For additional information, see section on surface preparation. After heating to recommended application temperature, apply adequate amount of 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Polyurethane Reactive Adhesive to one of the substrates to be bonded. Join the substrates within the adhesives specified open time and hold/fixture the bonded part until the adhesive has adequately set. Do not use to bond metal or glass to itself or each other or cure will not occur due to low moisture vapor transmission of the substrate. (Important: Adhesive heated at application temperature for more than 16 hours should be discarded.) *Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use. Dispensing Equipment 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Polyurethane Reactive Adhesive Cartridges can only be dispensed through the 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Polyurethane Reactive Adhesive Applicator. Other container sizes can be dispensed through bulk equipment specifically designed for use with hot melt polyurethane reactive adhesives 3M sales representative. All equipment must be used in strict accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer. WARNING: Do not use Scotch-Weld polyurethane reactive adhesive above 275°F (135°C). Scotch-Weld polyurethane reactive adhesive should not be applied to substrates that exceed 275°F (135°C). Caution: Wear heat resistant gloves and safety glasses when handling. Container sizes available: 10 fl. oz. cartridge, 2 kilogram foil bag, 1 gallon can, five gallon pail, 55 gallon drum.

Polyurethane Reactive Adhesives TE031 • TE040 • TS115 HGS • TS230 - 3 - Handling/Curing Information (continued) Cleanup: Allow product to solidify. Remove uncured waxy material (usually within the first 20 minutes after application) by scraping with a putty knife or similar tool. For cured material, remove by cutting or sanding. Do not use heat or flame to remove adhesive. Cure Time: The cure rate will vary depending on air temperature, relative humidity, substrate type and bond line thickness. Cure rate is more rapid on wood (moisture- rich substrate) than on plastic. Typical Performance Characteristics Note: The following technical information and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. A. Overlap Shear Strength Overlap shear (OLS) strengths were measured on 1" wide 1/2" overlap specimens. These bonds were made individually using 1" x 4" sample coupons. The thickness of the bond line was .003-.006". The thickness of the substrates were: plastics, .125", Maple, .375". The separation rate of the testing jaws was 2" per minute.

Cure rate is more rapid on wood (moisture- rich substrate) than on plastic. E. Cure Cycle With the exception of rate of strength build-up, all bonds, unless otherwise noted, were cured for a minimum period of 7 days at 77°F (25°C)/50% RH before testing or subjecting to further conditioning or environmental aging. Bonds were prepared using the suggested procedure for the particular substrate tested. Surface Preparation Plastic: Wipe with isopropanol soaked cheesecloth.* Allow solvent to evaporate before bonding. Note: 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Polyurethane Reactive Adhesives are not recommended for bonding untreated polyolefins. Plastic contaminated with mold release: Wipe with isopropyl alcohol soaked cheesecloth, abrade with fine grit abrasive, wipe with isopropyl alcohol soaked cheesecloth.* Allow solvent to evaporate before bonding. FRP, Rubber and Aluminum (uncoated): Wipe with methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) soaked cheesecloth, abrade with fine grit abrasive, wipe with MEK soaked cheesecloth.* Allow solvent to evaporate before bonding. Priming may be necessary on aluminum if part will be subjected to hot/humid conditions. Glass: Wipe with MEK-soaked cheesecloth.* Allow solvent to evaporate before bonding. Priming may be necessary on glass if subject part will be subjected to hot/humid conditions. *Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.
