Best Practices for 3M 6116 Scotch-Weld Hot Melt Spray Adhesive Chips
-
Surface Preparation
Surfaces must be clean, dry and dust free. Wiping with a solvent such as isopropyl alcohol for plastic substrates and 3M™ Scotch-Grip™ Solvent No. 3 or MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) for metal will aid in removing oil and dirt.
Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.

---|---|---|---|---|
20 piw | 180° Peel Strength | Open weave polyester fabric to Steel coupon | 23°C | Peel bonds of open weave polyester fabric to various substrates were tested at peel angle of 180° at twelve inches per minute rate at a temperature of 73°F (23°C). The value listed is the average force required to peel the fabric from the substrates in pounds per inch bond width (PIW). As this product is lower in viscosity than other 3M™ Spray-Bond Adhesives, the nozzle size used on our equipment for 3M™ Spray-Bond Adhesive 6116 is 0.8 mm in place of the 1.2 mm that comes standard with our equipment, Adhesive/Fabric Failure |
