What instructions should I use for Graphite conductive adhesive, alcohol based?
We recommend using the following instructions for Graphite conductive adhesive, alcohol based for maximum adhesion:
- Prepare the substrate surface: Before coating substrates, we recommend that they be clean and dry. You may use a solvent wipe.
- Mix the adhesive: This product is supplied in its concentrated form. Please note that it is thixotropic in nature and has the tendency to gel on standing. Preparation includes thorough agitation, then dilution with isopropanol to yield the required consistency for the application of choice.
- Apply the adhesive: Diluted graphite conductive adhesive may be applied with the use of a spray, brush, dip, or roller. We do recommend using a spray, as it yields the most uniform coverage.
- Cure the adhesive: This product air dries within five minutes under normal temperature and humidity. Complete cure properties will develop in about two hours with consideration of film thickness and drying conditions. To achieve optimum coating qualities in a shorter curing cycle, after air drying, bake for 5 minutes at 75°C (167°F).
