Multi-purpose polyurethane hot melt for sandwich panel bonding

SikaMelt-677 is a reactive polyurethane hot melt adhesive designed to bond various substrates and mainly used for sandwich panel bonding. It cures on exposure to atmospheric humidity. SikaMelt-677 meets the requirements set out by the International Maritime Organization.  

  • Very long open time
  • High green strength
  • IMO approved
  • Broad adhesion range
  • Very good heat resistance after moisture curing
  • Very good ageing resistance
PRODUCT BENEFITS

Usage
SikaMelt-677 is suitable for permanent bonding of polar plastics as well as for wood, foam, textiles, painted and primed steel. Non polar plastics like PP and PE can be bonded after proper physical pre-treatment. It is used for interior trim lamination as well as for Sandwich Panel applications. This product is suitable for professional experienced users only. Test with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed to ensure adhesion and material compatibility.

Technical Information
CURE MECHANISM

SikaMelt-677 cures by reaction with atmospheric moisture. At low temperatures the water content in the air is lower, which will result in a lower curing speed (see diagram 1). When bonding hydrophobic (e.g. PP) and/or moisture impermeable substrates a significantly longer curing time has to be taken into account.

This applies especially on assembly applications with an adhesive thickness > 100 µm. For lamination applications of hydrophobic and/or moisture impermeable substrates the adhesive layer shall not exceed 100 µm. In such cases project related tests with original substrates and conditions are mandatory.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

SikaMelt-677 is resistant to aqueous surfactant, weak alkaline/acids solutions and temporarily resistant to fuels, solvents and mineral oils.
The chemical resistance is influenced by several factors such as chemical composition, concentration, period of exposure and temperature. Therefore a project related testing in case of chemical or thermal exposure is required.
Application Information
Surface Preparation

Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil and dust.
Based on the surface and type of material, a physical or chemical pre-treatment might be required. Type of pre-treatment must be determined by tests. For metals best results are achieved, if substrates are heated up between 40 and 60 °C prior the assembling process.

 
Application

With adequate processing equipment SikaMelt-677 can be applied as film, dot, bead or spray application. For automated applications a suitable filter system is required.
To meet the required application properties the adhesive viscosity can be adjusted by changing the application temperature (see table Typical Product Data).
During breaks SikaMelt-677 is to be processed as follows:
For breaks ≥ 1 h the heating needs to be lowered to 80 °C and for breaks ≥ 4 h the heating needs to be switched off.
To ensure a constant quality during the whole production process it is mandatory to protect the adhesive in the melting tank with nitrogen, carbon dioxide or dried air (to avoid possible reaction of the product with humidity). At breaks or shut downs dip nozzle in dried oil in order to prevent curing of the adhesive (avoid blockage).
For advice on selecting and setting up suitable processing equipment contact the System Engineering Department of Sika Industry.
Removal

Equipment and application tools can be cleaned with SikaMelt-009. Cured material can for cleaning purposes be swelled with SikaMelt-001 and needs to be removed mechanically (see also cleaning instruction). SikaMelt-677 may be removed from tools and equipment with Sika Remover-208 or another suitable solvent.
Hands and exposed skin have to be washed immediately using hand wipes such as Sika Cleaner-350H or a suitable industrial hand cleaner and water.

Do not use solvents on skin.
STORAGE CONDITIONS

SikaMelt-677 has to be stored at temperature below 30 °C in a dry place.
For transportation purposes, the storage temperature can be exceeded for a period of max. 2 weeks up to 60 °C.
