Neuthane™ 335 Con - TDI Prepolymer Systems - Cold cure

Neuthane™ 335 Con - TDI Prepolymer Systems - Cold cure

Properties

The Neuthane™ 335 Con series of TDI based prepolymers cure in combination with Neuthane™ 30 Con, 40 Con, 50 Con and 60 Con curatives to give highly durable elastomers suitable for mould making.

Features

  • a high level of elasticity
  • good tear resistance
  • good abrasion resistance
  • low process temperatures
  • good dimensional stability

Typical Applications

  • Concrete Industry (e.g. moulds for decorative slabs and walls)
  • Model making

Processing can be by hand or by dispensing machine

Hand Processing

  • It is important the ambient curing conditions be at least 20°C.
  • Prior to casting please ensure the polyol component is mixed thoroughly as it is a blend.
  • Bring all components to the recommended process temperature.
  • Add pigments and Antifoam (as applicable) to the polyol component whilst mixing
  • Add all components and thoroughly mix ensuring that no unmixed material is left
    on the container sides (if necessary the mix can be transferred to a second
    clean container and mixed again).
  • If a vacuum facility is unavailable please limit the amount of air entrapped
    during mixing.
  • Cast into moulds, preheated to the recommended temperature
  • Cure as recommended

Processing

  • Avoid moisture contamination of all materials.
  • Part used containers should be flushed with dry nitrogen and resealed immediately after use
  • It is vital to ensure that the curative component is completely
    liquid and thoroughly mixed prior to use
  • Due to the exothermic nature of the system larger mixes will
    have a shorter pot life
  • Allow longer demould times if curing sub ambient

Alternatives

  • If cured at room temperature then physicals will develop fully over a 7 day.
  • Alternatively a post-cure at 60-70°C for 4-8 hours can be employed.
  • Depending upon system hardness and cure conditions the development of physicals may take longer. It is therefore advisable to assesstear strength before using the mouldings.
