Shelf Life Details The shelf life of CONATHANE EN-14 is 18 months from date of manufacture when stored in the original unopened containers at temperatures of 20 C-30 C (68 F-86 F). If containers are opened and the contents only partially used, containers should be flushed with dry nitrogen (see CONAP® Dri-Purge) or dry air before being resealed to prevent waste of material.

Best Practices for Elantas (Altana) Conathane EN-14
-
Mixing
Mix the two components together thoroughly, degas at 1-5mm Hg vacuum and pour into molds. The fast setting characteristics of this system make it ideal for automatic mixing and dispensing which eliminates the need for vacuum degassing.
The two components should be mixed thoroughly in metal or glass containers using metal or glass stirrers. Degassing of the mixed system should be accomplished at room temperature at 1-5 mm Hg vacuum. Containers should be large enough to allow for frothing during degassing. To ensure void-free castings, any material or container that could introduce moisture to the system should be avoided. Do not heat the components of the system prior to mixing.
