TENSOL 12 Acrylic Adhesive, 50ml Bottle/Perspex Bonding Glue Cement

Product Information

Tensol 12 is designed for the bonding of cast acrylic sheet intended for interior use only. Extruded acrylic ANGLOSOL CEMENT 1200 should not be used for outdoor applications and cannot be used with Perspex ME, Perspex SW or Perspex AG grades.Nor is it recommended for laminating cast acrylic (Perspex) sheets as crazing will eventually occur.

dissolved in solvent for the bonding of acrylic sheet for interior use only. Tensol 12 hardens as the solventLiquid solvent is applied using a brush or a syringe (often supplied with the glue). As it is a liquid, it is drawn along joints and surfaces through a process called capillary action. Care must be taken, as the glue damages exposed surfaces (as it melts the surfaces of the materials forming a ‘weld joint’). Do not use adhesive that has been mixed for more than 20 minutes as it will be difficult to use and give SW or AG grades and is not suitable for laminating sheets. Typical bond strengths are 24 MPa for a cold only be done at least one hour after the adhesive has set. Non-thermoformed components can be heated assembly. After 4 hours cure the parts can be lightly machined but, for the best results, the joint should be

applications, 1 to 2 weeks should be adequate. To obtain the maximum strength more rapidly the bond can sheet can be used if it is suitably annealed prior to bonding. Tensol 12 must not be used with Perspex ME,

Add Component B to Component A and mix thoroughly by stirring, taking care to entrap as little air in the adhesive as possible, after mixing cover the vessel and leave to stand for approx. 5 minutes to allow the larger bubbles to rise to the surface. ANGLOSOL CEMENT 1200 is a ready-mixed, colourless, solvent based cement.It consists of acrylic polymer and methyl methacrylate monomer dissolved in solvents. EVO-Stik TENSOL 70 is intended for cementing acrylic sheet to itself, but it will bond acrylic sheet to other materials such as wood. Applications include sign making, model making, structural engineering and acrylic sheet repair. Unsupported gaps of up to 1mm can be produced. EVO-Stik TENSOL 70 is not recommended for structural applications on aircraft. Mix Ratio (By Weight): Once the adhesive has set the final bond strength can be increased by heat curing the material. This can Dispense the refrigerated cement directly into the joint using a suitable dispenser. It is best to do this in

An alternative to a vice is a set of G-Cramps. These spread the pressure across the surfaces being joined, in much the same way as a vice. Notice the wood lengths that protect the ‘plastic’ and evenly distribute the pressure from the clamps. of the Part A. The Part A is a viscous mixture of acrylic polymer dissolved in monomer. The Part B is a Select an adhesive (Tensol), which joins plastics such as acrylic, together permanently. Tensol is also called ‘dichlormethane methyl methacrylate’ and produces a chemical weld between two surfaces. Tensol is applied to the surfaces to be glued and they are pressed together. The surfaces are clamped for 24 hours. Before using Tensol 12 store the adhesive at 5 to 10oC for 12 hours to reduce solvent evaporation betweenapplying the adhesive and assembling the parts. Dispense the adhesive from a small polythene bottle Cover the container and allow the mixed adhesive to stand for 5 minutes to allow the larger air bubbles to Accurately weigh 5 parts of Part B into 100 parts of Part A. It is important that this is done accurately
