C. Foam Tear

Foam Tear: Polyurethane foam of 1.2 lb./cu. ft. density was bonded to various substrates. After

24 hours at ambient temperature an effort was made to pull the foam from the surface of the

substrate. It was noted if the adhesive released from the substrate or if there was tearing of the

foam.

Directions for Use

1. Surface Preparation: Surfaces must be clean, dry and dust free. Wiping with a solvent

such as isopropyl alcohol for plastic substrates or MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) for metal

will aid in removing oil and dirt.*

*Note:

When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources and follow the manufacturer’s precautions

and directions for use.

2. Application: 3M™ Sprayable Hot Melt Adhesive is designed for spray application

using either a hand held applicator or a “bulk” hot melt system designed for use with a

sprayable hot melt adhesive.

Definitions

parts must be joined together. This information is based on 1/8" bead on non-metallic

substrates at 75°F (20°C).

1-Higher environmental temperatures will lengthen open times and set times, while lower environmental temperatures will

shorten open times and set times.
