TYPICAL CURING PERFORMANCE
Under normal conditions, the atmospheric moisture initiates the
curing process. Although full functional strength is developed
in a relatively short time, curing continues for at least 24 hours
before full chemical/solvent resistance is developed.
Cure Speed vs. Substrate
The rate of cure will depend on the substrate used. The table
below shows the fixture time achieved on different materials
at 22 °C / 50 % relative humidity. This is defined as the time to
develop a shear strength of 0.1 N/mm².
Fixture Time, seconds:
Mild Steel (degreased) 50 to 100
Aluminum (degreased) 15 to 40
Zinc dichromate 50 to 150
Neoprene <20
Rubber, nitrile <20
ABS 30 to 60
PVC 50 to 100
Polycarbonate 50 to 100
Phenolic 20 to 50
Cure Speed vs. Humidity
The rate of cure will depend on the ambient relative humidity.
