New Merbenit IA45 fast strength SMP Adhesive for application in very thin lines

Merbenit IA45 is a contact SMP adhesive for application in very thin lines on one or both sides and builds up strength very quickly.

The Merbenit SMP base provides very good adhesion even on difficult plastics.   

Free from solvents, isocyanates & silicone, low odour SMP Merbenit IA45 offers high strength flexible ‘contact’ adhesion to a range of substrates.

Available in: 

• 750 ml tins
• 600 ml sausages
• 16 kg drums
• 20 Ltr. Drums

1. Merbenit sealants and adhesives cure to permanent elastomers
2. They are suitable for joints and sealed bondings, making them flexible, dynamically loadable and resistant to enviromental influences.

Merbenit IA45 product advantages:

• Easy processing
• Chemical neutral polymerisation
• Free of solvents, silicones, isocyanates and pungent odours
• Permanently elastic and stress compensating
• No  deformation  of  thin  plastic  sheets  due  to  heat development during curing process
• The  use  of  adhesion  promoter  (primer)  can  often  be dispensed
• Very low volume shrinkage
• Bonded parts short-time correctable
• Self-levelling, good elongation, 10 minutes tooling time for exact alignment coupled with high strength

Application

• Installation of sound absorbing elements, large area bonding, bonding of honeycomb panels, sandwich panel, etc.
• Flexible bonding in the areas of metal,  apparatus and machine construction, plastics technology, air-conditioning and ventilation systems, car body,  commercial vehicle and container construction.

Thanks to fast crosslinking, it is possible to bond parts in continuous working process.  

The neutral polymerisation allows a connection without thermal or chemical pre-treatment of the assembly parts. Counterbalancing tolerances.

SMP Merbenit IA45 is suitable for bonding:

• Sandwich panels
• Aluminium
• GRP
• Textiles
• ABS
• PMMA
• PC
• PVC
• Z.P. steel.
• Fiberglass epoxide
• Fiberglass  polyester
• Anodised aluminium
• Aluminium raw
• Automotive  alloy  6016
• Steel V4A
• Glass
• Textiles
• Tissue
• Carton
• Insulating foams
• Wood

This versatile, flexible adhesive has the benefits of a contact adhesive with the ability to correct bonded products large or small. 

Apply to one surface, SMP Merbenit IA45 can be applied with brush, roller or spray.

Paint compatibility

• Due to the diversity of varnishes and paints in the market we recommend preliminary tests.
• When fully cured, short term exposure to elevated temperatures.

Chemical resistance

• Good against water, aliphatic solvents, oils, grease, diluted inorganic acids and alkalis
• Moderate against esters, ketone and aromatics
• Not resistant against concentrated acids and chlorinated hydrocarbons

Colours

• Gray
• Other colours on request
