ARALDITE 2023-10

Main features

  • 10-Minute Open Time
  • Up to 30 mm Gap Fill
  • 15.5 MPa Lap Shear

Product Description

ARALDITE 2023-10 A/B is a two-component, room-temperature-curing flexible methacrylate structural adhesive supplied as a thixotropic paste. Its open time is 10 minutes at room temperature, and the adhesive can fill gaps up to 30 mm. Cured performance includes 15.5 MPa lap shear strength under ISO 4587 at 23 deg C on sandblasted aluminum 5754 and 22 MPa tensile strength under ISO 527 at 23 deg C. The product is used for composite bonding in large structures and for industrial assembly and marine applications.

Key features

  • 10-minute open time: Applies at room temperature before assembly.
  • Up to 30 mm gap filling: The thixotropic paste can fill gaps up to 30 mm.
  • 15.5 MPa lap shear: ISO 4587 at 23 deg C on sandblasted aluminum 5754.

Applications

Composite bonding in large structures; industrial assembly; marine applications.

Pot Life
Pot life is the amount of time it takes for the viscosity of a material to double (or quadruple for lower viscosity materials) in room temperature after a material is mixed. It is closely related to work life but it is not application dependent, less precise and more of a general indication of how fast a system is going to cure.
10 - 20 minutes
Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.
