Master Bond UV10TK is a moderate viscosity, one part UV system for bonding, sealing and coating with good optical clarity, excellent physical properties and a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 110-115°C. When exposed to a UV light source emitting at a wavelength of 320-365 nm with 20-40 milliwatts per cm², UV10TK cures readily in 20-30 seconds. The rate of cure depends upon the distance from the light source, the thickness of the section and the intensity of the light source. When bonding, a few thousandths of an inch are more than adequate, and when encapsulating, it can cure in sections up to 1/4 inch thick. It bonds well to glass, surface treated metals and plastics such as polycarbonates and acrylics, among others. Its chemical resistance is particularly good as it resists water, oils, acids, bases and solvents. It is also an effective sealing and coating material. The system does not contain any solvents or diluents and none are released during cure. UV10TK combines low shrinkage with exceptional dimensional stability. It is an outstanding electrical insulator with a temperature range of -60°F to +400°F. UV10TK is effectively used for high production applications where fast fixture times and rapid curing are critical. It is best used in fiber-optic, optical, opto-electronic and electronic industries where high temperature resistance and moderate viscosity are needed.
