Best Practices for 3M Scotch-Weld Low Odor Instant Adhesive LO100
-
Surface Preparation
For optimum 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 depends on the required bond strength and the environmental aging resistance desired by the user. Typical quick surface preparation would include wiping with a clean solvent (such as isopropyl alcohol*), abrading the surface with a clean fine abrasive, and then wiping again with a clean solvent to remove loose particles.
-
Application
Ensure that parts are clean, dry, and free from oil and grease.Product is normally hand applied from the bottle. Apply sparingly to one surface and press parts firmly together until handling strength is achieved. As a general rule, as little cyanoacrylate as possible should be used. Over application will result in slower cure speed and lower bond strength
-
Curing
Full bond strength will typically be achieved within a 24 hour cure time
Low humidity or low temperature conditions will slow down the cure rate
After curing, 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Low Odor Instant Adhesive bonds are suitable for use up to about 160°F (71°C).
