ADHESION MS30 is a one-part Silyl-Terminated Polymer sealant. Once extruded it cures by reaction to the atmospheric moisture to form a high performance, permanently flexible multipurpose elastic sealant.

Application:

Surface preparation:

Pre-test substrates for adhesion. Cleaners and/or primers may be required to achieve optimal adhesion. As a rule, the substrates must be prepared in accordance with the NPT instructions; technical guidance regarding adhesion on specific surfaces may be obtained by submitting substrate samples for analysis to our laboratories. Surfaces must be clean, dry, free of water, oil, grease or rust and of sound quality. Remove all loose particles or residues with a jet of compressed air, sandpaper or hard brush. Glass, metal and other non-porous surfaces must be free of any coatings and wiped clean with solvent.

Screw on the plastic nozzle and cut it at an angle according to the desired bead thickness and profile. Fit the cartridge into a manual or pneumatic air operated gun (provided with telescopic piston) and extrude the adhesive/sealant carefully preventing air entrapment. Once opened, packs should be used up within a relatively short time.

The optimum operating temperature for both substrate and sealant is between 15°C and 25°C.

For sealing purposes:

In order to guarantee free movement of the sealant in joints, it is imperative that the sealant does not adhere to the bottom of the joint, therefore for correct joint caulking, a closed-cell polyethylene bead (joint backing rod) is to be placed at the proper depth. Apply appropriate primer to joint sides and observe the waiting time to avoid that any trapped solvent can form bubbles in the uncured sealant due to rising temperatures. Firmly extrude sealant and apply in the joint making sure that it is in full contact with the sides of the joint and with the backing rod at the bottom. Keep the nozzle in the sealant, continue on with a steady flow of sealant preceding the nozzle to avoid air entrapment. Avoid overlapping of sealant to eliminate entrapment of air. Sealant should be tooled to a smooth finish ensuring a full contact to the sides and back up material into the joint, this will also contribute in breaking the air bubbles which may be formed inside the sealant. Masking tape should be used where sharp exact joint lines or exceptionally neat lines are required. Remove the tape whilst the sealant is still soft.

For adhesive purposes:

Apply in spots or bead on the prepared surfaces then firmly press the parts which have to be bonded together.

Finishing indications and limitations:

Tooling and finishing must be carried out within the tack-free time of the sealant.

ADHESION MS30 can be over-painted. The paint must be tested for compatibility by carrying out preliminary trials. Attention must be observed with the use of alcohol or alkyd-resin since they may interfere with the curing process of the sealant and reduce the drying time of the paint itself. It should be understood that the hardness and film thickness of the paint may impair the elasticity of the sealant and lead to cracking of the paint film.

Avoid exposure to high levels of chlorine (avoid sealing joints in chlorinated swimming pools). Avoid contact with alcohol and other solvent cleaners during cure. When applying sealant, avoid air-entrapment. Since system is moisture-cured, permit sufficient exposure to air. Bonded elements may require additional holding or support during curing period.

Cleaning of equipment:

Clean tools with acetone or alcohol immediately after use. Cured material can only be removed mechanically.

Personal protective measures:

Keep out of reach of children. If skin contact occurs, remove immediately and wash with soap and water.

Storage:

ADHESION MS30 can be stored for 12 months in its original packing (unopened container) at 5°- 25°C in a cool, dry place. The storage temperature should not exceed 25°C for extended periods of time. Keep away from wet areas, direct sunlight and heat sources.
