  • Best Practices for 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive 2216 B/A Tan NS

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Surface Preparation

      For high strength structural bonds, paint, oxide films, oils, dust, mold release agents and all other surface contaminants must be completely removed. However, the amount of surface preparation directly depends on the required bond strength and the environmental aging resistance desired by user. The following cleaning methods are suggested for common surfaces

      Steel or Aluminum (Mechanical Abrasion) 1)Wipe free of dust with oil-free solvent such as acetone or alcohol solvents 2) Sandblast or abrade using clean fine grit abrasives (180 grit or finer). 3) Wipe again with solvents to remove loose particles. 4)If a primer is used, it should be applied within 4 hours after surface preparation .Aluminum (Chemical Etch): Aluminum alloys may be chemically cleaned and etched as per ASTM D 2651. This procedure states to: 1) Alkaline Degrease – Oakite 164 solution (9-11 oz/gal of water) at 190°F ± 10°F (88°C ± 5°C) for 10-20 minutes. Rinse immediately in large quantities of cold running water 2) To prepare 1 liter of this solution, dissolve sodium dichromate in 700 ml of distilled water. Add sulfuric acid and mix well. Add additional distilled water to fill to 1 liter. Heat mixed solution to 66 to 71°C (150 to 160°F). Dissolve 1.5 grams of 2024 bare aluminum chips per liter of mixed solution. Gentle agitation will help aluminum dissolve in about 24 hours To etch aluminum panels, place them in FPL etch solution heated to 66 to 71°C (150 to 160°F). Panels should soak for 12 to 15 minutes 3)Rinse: Rinse panels in clear running tap water 4)Dry: Air dry 15 minutes

      force dry 10 minutes (minimum) at 140°F (60°C) maximum 5)If primer is to be used, it should be applied within 4 hours after surface preparation Plastics/Rubber

      Wipe with isopropyl alcohol.

      Abrade using fine grit abrasives (180 grit or finer)

      Wipe with isopropyl alcohol.

      Glass

      Solvent wipe surface using acetone or MEK.

      Apply a thin coating (0.0001 in. or less) of 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Structural Adhesive Primer EC-3901 to the glass surfaces to be bonded and allow the primer to dry a minimum of 30 minutes @ 75°F (24°C) before bonding.

    2. Application

      Application to the substrates should be made within 90 minutes. Larger quantities and/or higher temperatures will reduce this working time.

      Join the adhesive coated surfaces and allow to cure at 60°F (16°C) or above until firm. Heat, up to 200°F (93°C), will speed curing.

      Keep parts from moving until handling strength is reached. Contact pressure is necessary. Maximum shear strength is obtained with a 3-5 mil bond line. Maximum peel strength is obtained with a 17-25 mil bond line.

    3. Mixing

      These products consist of two parts. Mix thoroughly by weight or volume in the proportions specified on the product label and in the uncured properties section. Mix approximately 15 seconds after a uniform color is obtained.

    4. Clean-Up

      Excess uncured adhesive can be cleaned up with ketone type solvents., When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use. Use solvents in accordance with local regulations.
