3.3 BONDING EDGES<br />

There are several different ways to attach the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edges to<br />

the workplace.<br />

3.3.1 BONDING THE EDGE UNDER VARICOR ®<br />

Two different work procedures are available to bond the edge under-<br />

neath the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> coating:<br />

1. Attaching the edge after coating the chipboard<br />

• Fold a coated plate near the edge to a width of 4 <strong>mm</strong>.<br />

• Let a surplus of 4 <strong>mm</strong> of the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> coating.<br />

Remove dust with clean, dry compressed air.<br />

• Apply <strong>Varicor</strong> ® adhesive to the projecting length and apply PVAC<br />

glue on the back of the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge over the whole surface.<br />

• Fix the edge with the aid of bonds and clamps.<br />

• Once the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® adhesive has hardened, furnish the edge with<br />

a 3 <strong>mm</strong> radius.<br />

• Pressing time: as specified by the manufacturer of the adhesive.<br />

The edge can also be bonded over the whole surface with <strong>Varicor</strong> ®<br />

adhesive to the substructure. It is possible to apply the <strong>Varicor</strong> ®<br />

3 <strong>mm</strong> edge with hot-melt adhesive using a special edge bonding<br />

machine. First apply the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® adhesive to the excess length<br />

of the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> coating!<br />

2. Attaching the edge prior to coating the surface<br />

• Apply PVAC glue to <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge strips and glue them to the<br />

edge of the chipboard. <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> strips must project slightly.<br />

• Adjust the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge to the length of the carrier material.<br />

• Attach 10 <strong>mm</strong> wide adhesive tape on the upper side of the chipboard<br />

with the bonded <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge.<br />

• Apply the PVAC glue to the chipboard.<br />

• Peel off the adhesive tape and apply the <strong>Varicor</strong>® adhesive to the<br />

<strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge.<br />

• Lay on the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> coating and the HPL counteracting plate.<br />

• Press the individual materials together.<br />

• Once the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® adhesive has hardened, furnish the edge with<br />

a 3 <strong>mm</strong> radius.<br />

3.3.2 BONDING THE EDGE IN FRONT OF THE SANDWICH<br />

PANEL<br />

• Format the sandwich panel.<br />

• Cut <strong>Varicor</strong> ® 3 <strong>mm</strong> edge to the edge of the sandwich panel with<br />

bonds.<br />

• Once the <strong>Varicor</strong> ® adhesive has hardened, furnish the edge with<br />

a 3 <strong>mm</strong> radius.<br />

Attention: In this case there is a risk that the bonded joint is more<br />

obvious because it runs along the edge.<br />

Important:<br />

Seal all of the open edges of the substructure with hot melt<br />

adhesive edges or sealant to prevent the absorption of water.<br />
