Technical Data Sheet Product 4062 PRELIMINARY February 1998 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Rapid bonding of a wide range of metal, plastic or elastomeric materials. The low viscosity is particularily suitable for bonding applications where controlled penetration of adhesive is required.

Although functional strength is developed in a relatively short time, curing continues for at least 24 hours before full chemical/solvent resistance is developed. Cure speed vs. substrate The rate of cure will depend on substrate used. The table below shows the fixture time achieved on different materials at 22ºC, 50% relative humidity. This is defined as the time to 2 develop a shear strength of 0.1 N/mm (14.5 psi) tested on specimens according to ASTM D1002. Substrate Steel (degreased) Aluminium Neoprene Nitrile rubber ABS PVC Polycarbonate Phenolic materials Cure speed vs. humidity The rate of cure will depend on the ambient relative humidity. The graph below shows the tensile strength developed with time on Buna N rubber at different levels of humidity. %of Full Strength PRODUCT DESCRIPTION LOCTITE® Product 4062 is a very low viscosity, very fast curing, single component cyanoacrylate adhesive. Fixture Time, seconds 3 to 20 2 to 5 <5 <5 2 to 5 2 to 5 3 to 10 <5 Cure speed vs. bond gap The rate of cure will depend on the bondline gap. High cure speed is favoured by thin bond lines. Increasing the bond gap will slow down the rate of cure. Cure speed vs. activator Where cure speed is unacceptably long due to large gaps or low relative humidity applying activator to the surface will improve cure speed. However, this can reduce the ultimate strength of the bond, therefore testing is recommended to confirm effect.
