PERMABOND® 947 is a low odour, non-fogging, non-frosting alkoxyethyl cyanoacrylate. The reduced odour improves worker comfort. Unsightly fogging adjacent to bondlines, common with other cyanoacrylate adhesives on hot and humid days, is eliminated. The elimination of fogging improves the production rate of acceptable parts as well as their appearance. The adhesive is very stable and will provide optimum performance for one year when refrigerated.
Surface Preparation
Surfaces should be clean, dry and grease-free before applying the adhesive. Use a suitable solvent (such as acetone or isopropanol) for the degreasing of surfaces.
Some metals such as aluminium, copper and its alloys will benefit from light abrasion with emery cloth (or similar), to remove the oxide layer.
Directions for Use
1) Apply the adhesive sparingly to one surface.
2) Bring the components together quickly and correctly aligned.
3) Apply sufficient pressure to ensure the adhesive spreads into a thin film.
4) Do not disturb or re-align until sufficient strength is achieved, normally in a few seconds.
5) Any surplus adhesive can be removed with Permabond CA solvent, nitromethane or acetone.
NB:
For difficult or porous surfaces using a Permabond activator is recommended. If bonding polypropylene, polyethylene, PTFE or silicone, prime first with Permabond Polyolefin Primer (POP).
Additional Information
This product is not recommended for use in contact with strong oxidizing materials and polar solvents although will withstand a solvent wash without any bond strength deterioration.
