ARALDITE® CW 5725-5 / ARADUR® HY 5726-1

• Very good thermal shock resistance
• Very good thermal endurance
• Low viscosity
• Good storage stability
• Very good impregnation properties
• Very good adhesion to engineering plastics

Preparation
Araldite® CW 5725-5 Resin contains some fillers, which tend to settle over time. It is therefore recommended to carefully homogenize the container content before using. The material present in the production equipment storage tank should be stirred from time to time to prevent separation and inconsistent metering.

Mixing
To facilitate stirring and removal, highly-filled components are heated to 60-80°C in the original container (e.g. overnight in an oven).
To prepare the casting mix the resin component should be homogenized in holding tank A at 70 - 80°C under a vacuum of 1-5 mbar, the hardener component in holding tank B at 30 - 40°C and a vacuum of 1 - 5 mbar. A metering unit should be used to feed the resin and hardener components to an impeller mixer.

2.5 hours at 90°C + 2.5 hours at 130°C

After curing, the components should be cooled down to min. 80°C along 1h in an unheated cabinet to exclude draughts and extremes of temperature.
