Product Description
3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive DP420LH is a low-halogen, toughened two-part epoxy adhesive for structural bonding with peel and shear strength and resistance to impact and fatigue. Base and accelerator mix 2:1 by volume or 2:0.97 by weight. Typical open time is 20 minutes, while work life at 23 deg C depends on mixed mass: 30 minutes for 5 g, 20 minutes for 10 g, and 15 minutes for 20 g. The cured adhesive has typical Shore D hardness 85 at 23 deg C by ASTM D2240 and total halogen content of less than 800 ppm.
Key features
- 2:1 volumetric mixing: The base-to-accelerator ratio is 2:1 by volume or 2:0.97 by weight.
- Mass-dependent work life: At 23 deg C, typical work life is 30 minutes for 5 g, 20 minutes for 10 g, and 15 minutes for 20 g.
- Low-halogen formulation: Typical cured-material values are 720 ppm chlorine, less than 5 ppm bromine, and less than 800 ppm total halogens.
Applications
Structural bonding where impact and fatigue resistance are selection factors; replacement of mechanical fastening in supported designs.
