PRODUCT INFORMATION Page 2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: XYLAN 1014/P01931E DEEP MED. BLUE #524 APPLICATION INFORMATION: This product is designed primarily for spray application. Consult with a Whitford representative if other types of application are being considered. Use an air spray gun with a siphon cup or pressure pot. Select a fluid nozzle and air cap that meet application needs. The Whitford Laboratory uses a Binks Model 2001 gun with a #66S fluid nozzle and a #66SD air cap. The air supply line must be equipped with traps to remove water and oil. Drain and service traps frequently. Apply the dry film thickness as specified. The proper amount of coating should be achieved with two or three passes of the spray gun across the work piece. Apply the coating to a uniform, full wet appearance. DRY FILM THICKNESS: 0.6 – 1.0 MIL (15 - 25 MICRONS) CLEAN UP SOLVENT: NMP/XYLENE - 2:1 CURING THE COATING: In order to completely cure the coating, the SUBSTRATE TEMPERATURE must remain at the specified temperature for the entire bake schedule. FLASH OR AIR DRY: 1-2 MINUTES AT 150-175°F (65-80°C) OPTIONAL BUT MAY AID TO REDUCE SOLVENT POPPING ON LOW MASS PARTS. BAKE SCHEDULE: 10 MINS AT 450°F (232°C) STANDARD; 10 MINS AT 525°F (275°C) FOR CHEMICAL RESISTANCE; 10 MINS AT 650°F (343°C) FOR RELEASE COATING SPECIFICATIONS: Evaluate the coating according to the following specifications: PENCIL HARDNESS: 2 - 4 H GLOSS: LOW TO MEDIUM CURE TEST: PLACE 5 DROPS OF NMP ON SURFACE FOR 1 MIN. THEN WIPE WITH PAPER TOWEL = NO EFFECT. ADHESION: 1.0 MM CROSS HATCH & 5 TAPE PULLS = NO LOSS OF ADHESION EXCELLENT KNIFE SCRATCH ADHESION ON MOST SUBSTRATES. OTHER: USE TEMPERATURE: 260°C CONTINUOUS; 300°C INTERMITTENT GOOD RESISTANCE TO ACIDS.
