Delivery forms

AQUA-THERM BC-380/870-D is supplied in 20 kg containers and 200 kg barrels.

Storage

Store in a cool dry place (max. 30 °C) away from direct sunlight. Protect from moisture and humidity. Shelf-life is 9 months when stored in closed original container at max. 30 °C. Being a water-thinnable emulsion with a very low co-solvent content, this prouduct suffers from cold and must be stored at temperatures included between 0 and + 30 °C.

Hardening

Typical curing times:

  • at 170 °C 2-4 h
  • at 150 °C 3-5 h
  • at 135 °C 5-8 h

Curing times after reaching the object temperature.

Protection

Use in well ventilated area, avoid contact with skin and eyes and wear protective clothes. For more details see the SDS.

Processing

AQUA-THERM BC-380/870-D can be used as supplied or diluted up to 70 % with tap water depending on the final objects. It is recommended to mix the product in the original container before use. It is recommended to mix the product into the tank for some minutes twice a day to avoid sedimentation.
