Drying Information

The recommended maximum drying temperature can be found in the technical data section.
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. 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.

Processing Information

Suitable Substrates - Polyvinyl chloride films, Thermoplastic polyolefin foil, Artificial leather, Pretreated olefines, Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, Polycarbonate, Polyester, Sheet moulding compound, Leather, Textile, Wood
Surface Requirements - Minimum surface tension 40 mN/m, Dry, Clean, Free of grease, Free of dust, Free of oil
Application Method - Roller coating and Spraying
Product is free of Solvents
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® Clearbond XP 01313-032AR (201-03AR) 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 is optimized for a roller coater application with smooth dosing rollers.
Further roller coating setups may be suitable but need to be tested.
Spray application is basically also possible but due to the low viscosity the sag resistance on absorbent substrates will be very low and therefore extensive tests on the original substrates must be performed by the customer.
