| Shelf Life/Storage/Shipping |
Shelf life is six months when stored in a clean, dry environment at 65-85 ºF (18-30 ºC) in original, unopened container. Excluding LORD® 7542-B Black and 7542-C curatives, prolonged exposure to temperatures below 50 ºF(10 ºC) during shipping or storage may cause variations in cured properties and/or significant reduction in shelf life. After opening, protect adhesive from excessive exposure to moisture by installing desiccant cartridges and/or using dry nitrogen as an inert cover. |
|||||||||
| Shelf Life | 6 months | |||||||||
| Non-Flammable | Does not require explosion-proof equipment. | |||||||||
| Environmentally Recommended | Does not contain ozone depleting chemicals. | |||||||||
| Environmentally Resistant | Resists sunlight, weathering, humidity and salt spray. | |||||||||
| Chemically Resistant | Solvent resistant when cured. Painting and most cleaning processes do not affect bond strength. | |||||||||
| Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Rated | Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 746C certified. | |||||||||
| Surface Preparation | Surfaces should be free of grease, dirt and other contaminants. For plastics, clean the surface with a dry rag wipe or a rag dampened with solvent. For metals, prime or grit blast the surface, then solvent wash for optimum bond performance. | |||||||||
| Mixing | Mix LORD® 7542-A resin with the appropriate curative at a 1:1 ratio, by volume. Handheld cartridges will automatically dispense the correct volumeric ratio of each component. Once mixed, the adhesive cures rapidly. | |||||||||
| Applying |
Apply adhesive using handheld cartridges or automatic meter/mix/dispense equipment.
|
|||||||||
| Curing | LORD® 7542 adhesive will cure to full strength in 24 hours or less at 75 ºF (24 ºC), depending on the curative used. | |||||||||
| Cleanup | Clean equipment and tools prior to the adhesive cure with organic solvents such as isopropyl alcohol. Once adhesive is cured, heat the adhesive to 300 ºF (149 ºC) or above to soften the adhesive. This allows the parts to be separated and the adhesive to be more easily removed. Some success may be achieved with commercial adhesive strippers. | |||||||||
