Polytec TC 406
- Chemical Family
- Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives
Polytec TC 406 is a pasty, two component epoxy with curing at room temperature, used for thermal management in electronics, hybrid technology, sensor technology and power engineering. Polytec TC 406 has a good thermal resistance as well an excellent thermal conductivity. The application can be performed directly from the side by side cartridge with a static mixing nozzle, using a dispensing gun.

- Processing
The processing of two component products from side by side cartridges is very simple; The cartridge is inserted into a suitable dispensing gun. The closing cap of the cartridge is then removed and replaced by an according static mixing nozzle; By activating the trigger of the dispensing gun, the two components are pressed out and automatically mixed in the static mixer; In order to prevent mixing errors, dispose the first half of the content in the mixing nozzel prior to application; Processing should be carried out rapidly after mixing the components as an indication, the pot life can be used; When the pot life is exceeded, the mixing tube should be replaced with a new one; Close the cartridge with the cap after use; Surfaces should be clean, thus free of dirt, grease, oil, dust or process chemicals; Please take care of respective minimum curing temperature and time
