Activators for SPEEDBONDER and Structural AdhesivesLoctite ® Product, Ordering and Technical InformationActivators are the necessary second component of Loctite ® SPEEDBONDER and Structural adhesives. Availablein both solvent-based and solventless versions, activators effect the cure of SPEEDBONDER 324, 326 and 3270, andStructural Adhesives 332 and 392. If the carrier solvent present in the activator solvent dispersion is undesirable, thepure catalyst is available as a solvent-free activator. However, it should be noted that when using a solvent-free activator,a minimum amount of activator should be applied, as excessive activator will detrimentally affect the performanceof the adhesive. Activator is applied to one or both surfaces and the adhesive is applied to the other. Curebegins when the parts are mated.Processing Steps:1. Apply SPEEDBONDER or Structural Adhesive to one (or both, if required) of the substrate surfaces.2. Apply activator to the other surface. Allow activator's carrier solvent to flash off; if using asolventless version parts will remain wet to the touch.3. Mate the two surfaces.4. Catalyst from the activator initiates the polymerization of the resin. Allow fixture strengthto develop before handling.20
