ARALDITE TDR 1100-11
Harmonization Code : 8529.90 | Parts solely or principally used for TV, radio, and transmission
Main features
- Glass, Plastic, and Wood Bonding
- 2:1 Meter-Mix Processing
- 90-Minute Working Window
Product Description
TDR 1100-11 is a thixotropic, two-part epoxy adhesive specifically formulated for bonding glass laminate, wood, and plastic components. Designed primarily for use in the construction of archery bows, this system features a convenient 2:1 by volume mix ratio that is well-suited for automated metering equipment.
Key features
- Extended working time: Features a long pot life of over 90 minutes to accommodate complex assembly processes.
- Accelerated processing: Cures quickly at temperatures above 170°F (77°C) to help streamline production.
- Aesthetic finish: Formulated to produce a clear bond line, preserving the visual quality of the final assembly.
Applications / Suitable for
- Formulated for the construction of archery bows.
- Bonding glass laminate components.
- Bonding wood and plastic materials.
Technical Specifications
General Properties
Mix Ratio
2:1
The amount of a constituent divided by the total amount of all other constituents in a mixture
Pot Life
95 minutes
Pot life is the amount of time it takes for the viscosity of a material to double (or quadruple for lower viscosity materials) in room temperature after a material is mixed.
It is closely related to work life but it is not application dependent, less precise and more of a general indication of how fast a system is going to cure.
Mechanical Properties
Elongation
3.6% to 4.6% (depending on cure schedule) %
Elongation is the process of lengthening something.
It is a percentage that measures the initial, unstressed, length compared to the length of the material right before it breaks.
It is commonly referred to as Ultimate Elongation or Tensile Elongation at break.
