Epoxy glue 30ml
Epoxy adhesive is a high-performance adhesive made up of two components: a resin and a hardener. When mixed together, they react to form a strong bond in 5 minutes, with full cure in 12 hours. This type of adhesive is widely used in a variety of fields requiring a durable and robust bond, such as construction, woodworking, jewellery, car repair and electronics.
It is a two-component epoxy adhesive, comprising a resin and a hardener stored separately to preserve their quality until use. By mixing the two in the correct proportions, a chemical reaction starts, initiating the curing process. This process creates a stable and durable bond, making epoxy adhesive suitable for a wide range of applications.
One of the main advantages of epoxy glue is its strong adhesion, often superior to adhesives such as cyanoacrylate or white glue. This strength makes it a top choice for applications requiring a reliable, long-lasting bond.
In addition, the two-component epoxy adhesive can fill cavities and adapt to irregular surfaces. Its high viscosity allows it to seep into cracks, forming a strong, homogeneous bond. This ability is ideal for projects requiring a secure joint.
The two-component epoxy adhesive dries transparently, which is an advantage in projects requiring a secure joint.
It is compatible with a variety of materials, including plastic, wood, metal, ceramics and glass, making it invaluable for DIY or professional work.
Another major advantage is its resistance to moisture, withstanding moderate exposure without losing its adhesive properties, making it perfect for applications outdoors or in damp environments.
Contents: 30 ml.
Instructions for use :
- Clean and dry the surfaces to be bonded, and lightly roughen them with emery cloth for best results.
- Mix equal quantities of resin and hardener for approximately one minute, then apply the mixture to both surfaces.
- Wipe off any excess epoxy with acetone solvent.
- Allow to set for 5 minutes and cure completely for 12 hours. Remember to use the appropriate personal protective equipment.
Safety instructions :
- Always use in a ventilated area. In case of medical assistance, keep the label handy.
- Keep out of reach of children. Avoid breathing vapours and wear the required protective equipment (gloves, goggles, etc.).
- Dispose of the product in an approved facility.
Warnings:
- May cause skin irritation and allergic reactions.
- Irritating to eyes. Harmful to aquatic life in the long term.
Advantages of transparent epoxy glue for models and modelling:
Epoxy is highly prized for its strength once cured, making it an ideal choice for assembling heavy or bulky items, such as figures or landscapes in dioramas. The strength of epoxy glue ensures that models remain stable even when handled.
Its versatility means it can be used to glue different materials, such as plastics, metals, ceramics and wood, making it easy to create projects combining different elements without compromising adhesion.
With a working time of 5 minutes, known as the ‘open time’, it allows parts to be positioned and adjusted precisely, which is useful for complex assemblies.
Green Stuff World epoxy adhesive also offers exceptional filling properties, seeping into gaps and creating a homogeneous bond. It is also highly resistant to temperature variations, humidity and chemicals, allowing you to create robust dioramas even in a variety of conditions.
