Best Practices for Dow 3-4112 UV Cure Gel
-
Testing
If a substrate or material is questionable with respect to potentially causing inhibition of cure, a small-scale compatibility test should be run to ascertain suitability in a given application. The presence of liquid or uncured product at the interface between the questionable substrate and the cured gel indicates incompatibility and inhibition of cure. In certain situations, toughened gels may appear fully cured but have reduced or no adhesion. This may result from slight inhibition at the interface.
