DP125

3 TM Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesives DP125 Translucent and Gray Technical Data December, 2009 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive DP125 Translucent is a faster curing version Product Description of the 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive 2216 Translucent B/A. The worklife and cure time has been reduced from hours and days for the Scotch-Weld epoxy adhesive 2216 Translucent B/A to minutes and hours. Final shear and peel strengths remain similar or even slightly improved compared to the Scotch-Weld epoxy adhesive 2216 Translucent. Scotch-Weld epoxy adhesive DP125 Gray is a filled, pigmented version of the Scotch-Weld epoxy adhesive DP125 Translucent and has similar performance and flexibility properties. Available in bulk containers as 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive 125 B/A Translucent and 125 B/A Gray. Features 25 minute worklife High peel and shear strength Flexible Controlled flow (gray) Translucent or Gray 1:1 mix ratio Note: The following technical information and data should be considered representative Typical Uncured or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes.

Footnotes: 1. Viscosity determined using 3M test method C-1d. Procedure involves Brookfield RVF, 7 spindle, 20 rpm and 80F. Measurement taken after 1 minute. 2. Worklife determined using 3M test method C-3180. Procedure involves periodically measuring a 2 gram mixed mass for self leveling and wetting properties. This time will also approximate the usable worklife in an 3M EPX Applicator mixing nozzle. 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesives DP125 Translucent and Gray Typical Cured Note: The following technical information and data should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes.
