PRODUCT BENEFITS
UsageSikaForce-712 L7 is used primarily for bonding of metal, fibre cement, wood and glass fibre reinforced plastic to expanded and extruded polystyrene foam, polyurethane foam and mineral wool in the manufacturing of sandwich elements and other constructions. This product is suitable for experienced professional users only. Tests with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed, ensuring adhesion and material compatibility. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Technical Information CURE MECHANISM The curing of SikaForce-712 L7 takes place by a chemical reaction of the two components. Higher temperatures speed up the curing process and lower slow it down. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE In case of chemical or thermal exposure, conduct project related testing. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Application Information Surface Preparation Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil, dust and contaminants. After the cleaning process, a physical or chemical pre-treatment might be required, depending on surface and type of material. The type of pre-treatment must be determined by tests. Application Typically a coat weight between 150 and 350 g/m2 is applied, depending on the substrates to be bonded. The specific coat weight for a given substrate combination must be determined by tests. Apply before reaching half of the pot-life and join parts together within the open time. Consider that, if mixed in larger amounts, the exothermic reaction can reduce the pot-life and open time significantly. Pressing An adequate bonding pressure is necessary to obtain a voidless contact between the substrates and the adhesive. The specific pressure is, however, dependent on the core material and must be determined by tests. The pressure must always be below the maximum compressive strength of the core. After starting the press process, do not release the pressure until the press time has elapsed. Removal Uncured SikaForce-712 L7 may be removed from tools and equipment with SikaForce-096 Cleaner. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. Do not use solvents on skin. STORAGE CONDITIONS SikaForce-712 L7 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 content has to be protected against humidity. |
