Master Bond UV15-7TK1A is a new one component, high viscosity, optically clear, tough UV curable system developed by Master Bond, Inc., Hackensack, NJ. UV15-7TK1A is designed for bonding, sealing and coating applications. When exposed to a UV light of appropriate wavelength and adequate intensity UV15-7TK1A cures rapidly, with a typical cure times range from as little as 5-10s to 1-2min at ambient temperatures. Commercially marketed 200W/in. medium pressure mercury vapor or equivalent UV light sources are recommended. Maximum UV absorption takes place in the 280-360nm range.

Master Bond UV15-7TK1A is tough durable, non-yellowing and chemically resistant. It has excellent electrical insulation properties and low shrinkage upon cure. Bonding well to both similar and dissimilar substrates, UV15-7TK1A will cure in section thicknesses greater than 1/4in. It has an extended service capability of - 80 to + 300°F and is resistant to thermal shock.

UV15-7TK1A is fully reactive and does not contain any solvents or other volatiles. It has a viscosity of a smooth paste, is available for use in pint, quart, gallon containers and in syringe applicators, and its shelf life is 6 months at 75°F in unopened 1 containers.
