MK 230-HV

Two-component methacrylate adhesive suitable for bonding fibre-reinforced composites in carbon and glass. Specific product for large bonding naval and wind structures.

MK 230-HV

  • Methyl-methacrylate → best balance between Tenacity and Torsion | mix ratio 10:1 by volume
  • Doesn’t involve contaminating surface abrasion actions → generally only blowing is required on the hull
  • Allows bonding with all thicknesses that occur → does not exceed in exothermic creating CO2 into the joint
  • Very high thixotropy for vertical and filler applications
  • Large functional gap-fill ≈ 0,25 mm ÷ 45 mm
  • Very long workability time (open-time) → ≈ 70 ÷ 100 minutes
  • Flexible → maximum elongation strength ≈ > 100%
  • High tensile strength → 20÷25 MPa. The failure of the glass and/or carbon fibres occurs before the maximum value is reached
  • Easy pre-dispensed extrusion → through 490 ML bi-cartridges | 19 LT Kgs | 189 LT
  • High resistance to severe wet-static aging cycles → Temperature | Humidity | Salinity
  • It can be mixed mnually and not only through the dispensers → a dedicated guided procedure is available
