• Flammable: Requires careful handling and storage according to safety guidelines.

Applications and Typical Usage

• Seam bonding: Ideal for joining two surfaces of the same solid surface or quartz composition.
• Interior fit-outs: Used in kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial countertops where durable, invisible joints are required.
• Surface repairs: Suitable for repairing chips or cracks in solid surface materials.
• Fabrication: Used by fabricators for assembling solid surface components with strong, lasting bonds.
• Low-emission projects: Perfect for green building projects requiring materials with minimal indoor air impact.

Technical Notes

The adhesive cures optimally at room temperature (41-73°F / 5-23°C). Lower temperatures slow the cure rate, while higher temperatures accelerate it and reduce working time. It is important to store cartridges in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated area on their sides to maximize shelf life. Avoid freezing or exposure to elevated temperatures to prevent degradation.

Corian® Joint Adhesive is not recommended for bonding dissimilar materials unless explicitly approved by DuPont. Proper safety precautions should be observed due to its flammable nature.
