WEICON Solar-Flex is strong, non-corrosive, paintable (wet-on-wet), weather-resistant and resistant to UV rays. It is free of silicone, isocyanate, halogens and solvents. Solar-Flex is an elastic adhesive based on MS polymer specially developed for the solar industry. Both the very high initial bonding power and the fast development of adhesive strength enable bondings even on vertical surfaces. Replaces traditional fixings in the assembly of solar and photovoltaic power systems.
Weather-resistant adhesive and sealant for the solar sector, based on MS-Polymer.
Surface pre-treatment
Surfaces must be clean and free of grease. Many surface soilings, such as oil, grease, dust and dirt can be removed with WEICON Surface Cleaner. For heavily soiled metal surfaces, we recommend Cleaner Spray for removing old colour residues or adhesive residues, WEICON Sealant and Adhesive Remover is ideal.
Most materials can be bonded to and among each other. For certain materials or special requirements, we recommend the use of a bonding agent (primer). Mechanical surface pre-treatment e.g. by grinding or sanding can also improve the adhesion
considerably.
Processing
Application methods Cartridge gun for 310 ml cartridges, compressed air gun, we recommend a version with piston rod (WEICON Compressed Air Cartridge Gun), automatic dosing systems. In order to guarantee and ideal wetting, the bonding parts need to be joined, before the adhesive skins
over (skin-over time).
Storage
When unopened and stored in normal climate (+23°C and 50% rel. air humidity), WEICON Elastic Adhesives and Sealants
have a shelf life of 12 months.
Instructions for use
When using WEICON products, the physical, safety-related, toxicological and ecological data and regulations in our EC safety data sheets must be observed.
