Hylobond M511 Technical Data Sheet

HYLOBOND M511
Description
Hylobond M511 is a toughened, two component acrylic adhesive designed for bonding a wide
range of substrates. This structural methacrylate adhesive has superior peel, shear and
compressive properties. Hylobond displays high toughness and can be used on gaps up to 5mm.
The adhesive has excellent fatigue and weathering resistance.

Instructions for Use
The surface to be bonded can have a great impact on the cured properties of Hylobond. Care must be
taken to ensure that all traces of oil, grease and dirt are removed from the substrate. This can be done
with a degreasing agent or solvent such as acetone. Abrading or etching the surface can greatly
improve the adhesion of the bonded joint, if this is done a second degreasing process is highly
recommended.
Prior to dispensing it is important to extrude a bead of about 5cm in length. This is to ensure that both
components are being extruded at the same rate. The product should be used immediately to prevent
curing in the nozzle. Enough adhesive should be used to fill the bond gap before the parts are joined.
Once the substrates are joined sufficient pressure should be applied (e.g. by clamping) to avoid dry
bonding and prevent movement in the joint. These processes must be completed before the geltime
expires.
The optimal application temperature is about 200C, the geltime and cure time will be affected at
temperatures much higher or lower than this. The viscosity is also affected by temperature so to
ensure a consistent extrusion rate and geltime the temperature should be kept constant.
Safety
Hylobond is intended for industrial use and should only be used by a skilled individual provided with
the correct protective equipment. See SDS for detailed information regarding the safe use of
Hylobond.
Storage
Shelf life is 6 months from date of manufacture when stored below 250C in original unopened
containers. The shelf life will decrease if kept above 250C or if exposed to direct sunlight.
