PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the curing time of 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP125?
The curing time of the adhesive depends on various factors, such as temperature and humidity. However, it typically takes about 24 hours to achieve maximum strength.
-
Is this adhesive suitable for bonding plastics?
Yes! In fact, one of its primary uses is bonding difficult plastics such as polypropylene and polyethylene.
-
Can this epoxy be used in outdoor applications?
Yes! It has excellent resistance to water and weathering effects. Therefore, it can work well in outdoor conditions.
When using a Duo-Pak (DP) size adhesive, rely on 3M dispensing equipment for convenient and accurate metering, mixing and dispensing.
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP125 is a versatile, medium viscosity, epoxy adhesive that pours easily with minimal dripping, running and migration that will flow smoothly for a controlled, accurate dispensing. Its flexibility makes it ideal for applications involving dissimilar surfaces, where coefficients of thermal expansion are a consideration, for example when bonding glass to metals.
Recommended Applications- General attachment applications in a variety of industries
- Replace 5 minute epoxy for improved performance and more positioning time
The 1:1 mix ratio for 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive DP125 is ideal with bulk mixing and with a 25-minute work life there's some opportunity for repositioning to keep projects on track. The adhesive reaches handling strength in approximately 150 minutes and is fully cured in 7 days (at 72°F/22°C).
Epoxy adhesives are part of the class of adhesives called "structural adhesives," which include polyurethane, acrylic, cyanoacrylate and others. Epoxies are formulated as liquid reactive polymers that undergo a chemical reaction when mixed and then cure to form a solid plastic material. Once the two parts are mixed in their specified ratio, they begin the curing process and offer a limited working time where the adhesive can be applied and the two surfaces positioned as needed. These structural adhesives provide high shear and peel strengths, depending on the formula, and better heat and chemical resistance than other common adhesives.
Epoxy adhesive (often referred to as epoxy glue) is widely used in building and home construction; aircraft and automobile manufacturing; bicycle, boat, golf clubs, ski and snowboard assembly as well as a host of home use and other applications. It is used virtually anywhere high-strength bonds are needed along with resistance to environmental conditions. These adhesives are popular for their ease of use, mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Formulations can be created to make epoxy for plastic flexible or epoxy for metal rigid, epoxy resin transparent or opaque, quick setting or slow setting. The versatility with which these adhesives can be formulated helps meet almost any requirement for bonding wood, metal, glass, stone and various plastics.
