Thermonex® 063-14A

• Sag resistant
• High initial bonding strength
• Good hydrolysis stability
• High heat resistance
• Long open time

Processing

• For the bonding of genuine leather, artificial leather and spacer fabrics a double side adhesive application on the laminate and on the carrier is necessary to achieve the maximum bonding performance.
• For foil applications a single side adhesive application on the carrier is sufficient.
• Equipment, containers, hoses, etc. which come into contact with Thermonex® 063-14A red must be of corrosion resistant material (i.e. stainless steel 1.4541 or 1.4571 or plastic) to avoid coagulation.
• Any contact with non-ferrous metals (like hoses, sealing rings, filter bodies, etc.) must be avoided in any case.
• The adhesive can be applied by spraying out of a pressure pot or with automated mixing systems.
• The use of HVLP spray guns minimizes overspray.
• Also roller coating is possible as an application system.

Drying

• Recommended maximum drying temperature is 45°C in a ventilated oven for approx. 10 - 20 minutes (depending on the part size and coating weight).
• Drying with dry air (< 10 % rel. humidity) leads to a faster and very gentle drying process.
• During the drying process, the humidity in the drying channel increases strongly.
• The excessive moisture content must be reduced either by fresh air supply or by drying out physically.
• The adhesive film must be completely dry before lamination (recommended remaining humidity < 10 %).

Caution:

• The drying time is influenced by the absorbency of the surface, drying temperature, coating weight, air humidity etc. and needs to be checked under real life conditions.

• Thermonex® 063-14A red should be used within the shelf life specified on the packaging.
• The storage stability applies to material stored under appropriate conditions only (original unopened containers, recommended storage temperature).
