The product is supplied pre-filtered to below 1 micron particles.
Storage
- Avoid unnecessary exposure to moisture.
- Long term storage should be at ambient conditions of 0-30ºC.
- The coating is supplied in glass bottles. Keep container closed to avoid moisture penetration.
- The shelf life is 6 months.
Application
The material is intended to be coated by any common coating technique such as: spin coating; spraying; dipping; roll coating, etc. The material can be diluted. See relevant links in the Technical Support page in our website.
Be aware of the risk of gelation, if the material is left in an opened bottle.
Curing schedule:
20-60 min at ambient conditions (For 200 micron layers. Thicker layers take longer). High humidity accelerates the curing process. Gelation occurs within that time. Leave for overnight for final curing or place for one hour in an oven at 80-100°C.
Safety: Refer to the SDS.
