Technical Datasheet 01/08/2011 RESOLTECH 3500 Hardeners 3506, 3507, 3508 Epoxy Adhesive for bonding materials with different dilatation coefficient ratios 40% Elongation until break properties Excellent application characteristics (low viscosity, high thixotropy). Adjustable pot life for any size applications & climates. Ambient temperature curing. Applicable in high humidity conditions. The Resoltech 3500 epoxy adhesive cures at ambient temperature and enables durable bondings of materials of different dilatations coefficient such as teak wood on composite, aluminium or steel hulls, steel on wood. GRP laminates (polyester on polyester, vinylester on vinylster) bonded with the 3500 system will suffer delamination before adhesive failure It’s 40% elongation until break properties enable extremely strong and durable bonding with good chemical resistance. Both resin and hardener component are low viscosity, but once mixed result in a highly thixotropic gel, easy to mix and to apply, while not sagging even applied on vertical surfaces in thick layers. The hardener 3506 enables to obtain a long pot life for large surface applications and hot climates, while the 3507 and 3508 are faster and correspond to smaller surface applications.

Resin 3500 Hardeners 3506, 3507 & 3508 Epoxy Adhesive for bonding materials with different dilatation coefficient ratios MIXING RATIO By weight Resine 3500 Harderners 3506 ,3507 By Volume 100 100 50 57 & 3508 WARNING: The mixing ratio must be accurately followed. It is not possible to change the ratio,it would result in lower mechanical properties. The mixture should be thoroughly stirred to ensure full homogeneity. It is important to note that epoxy systems tend to heat up much faster in a pot than as a thin film. It is therefore necessary to only mix the necessary amount usable within the...
