Technical Information

CURE MECHANISM

The curing of SikaBiresin® CR910 takes place by 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

Application Information

Surface Preparation

It is necessary to prepare the substrates prior to lamination to ensure optimal adhesion and strength. Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil, dust and contaminants. After the cleaning process, a physical or chemical pretreatment might be required, depending on the surface and type of material.

Application

For information concerning application consult the Application Manual SikaBiresin® CR910 Blade Repair.

 

Removal

Uncured SikaBiresin® CR910 may be removed from tools and equipment with Sika® Cleaner P. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically.

Hands and exposed skin have to be washed immediately using a suitable industrial hand cleaner and water.

Do not use solvents on skin.

STORAGE CONDITIONS

All components must be stored between 15 °C and 30 °C in a dry place.

Prior to use check the material for homogeneity and crystallization and make sure to temper it to processing temperature. If crystallization of resin occurs, heat the MixPax to 60 °C until crystallization has disappeared (maximum 2 hours).

During transportation, a short term temperature of 60 °C must not be exceeded. Do not expose to direct sunlight.
