Read more| Toughened and fast-curing 2-component structural adhesive SikaPower-880 is a thixotropic, fast curing, gap-filling 2-component epoxy adhesive, which cures at room temperature. It is designed for use in structural joints, where toughness and high strength are required. SikaPower-880 is particularly suitable for bonding metallic substrates, like steel and aluminium, as well as composite substrates, like GFRP and CFRP laminates. The adhesive has very good application properties and shows elevated heat resistance.

Technical Information CURE MECHANISM SikaPower-880 cures by a fast chemical reaction of the two components at room temperature. The cure rate can be further accelerated at higher temperatures, e.g., using ovens or infrared lamps. The final glass transition temperature, as well as the tensile and shear strengths, may be increased with higher curing temperature. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE In view of potential chemical or thermal exposure, it is required to conduct a project related testing. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Application Information Surface Preparation Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil and dust. Surface treatment depends on the specific nature of the substrates and is crucial for a long lasting bond. All pre-treatment steps must be confirmed by preliminary tests on original substrates considering specific conditions in the assembly process. Application SikaPower-880 is dispensed from 1:1 dual cartridges with adequate dispensers. The use of electric or pneumatic guns with piston-driven plungers is recommended. Extrude adhesive without mixer to equalize the filling levels. Attach the mixer and dispose of the first few cm of the bead before the application. For advice on selecting and setting up a suitable pump system, contact the System Engineering Department of Sika Industry. Removal Uncured SikaPower-880 may be removed from tools and equipment with Sika Remover-208 or another suitable solvent. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. STORAGE CONDITIONS SikaPower-880 has to be kept between 10 °C and 30 °C in a dry place. Do not expose it to direct sunlight or frost. After opening of the packaging, the contents have to be protected against humidity. |
