®
DYMAX Ultra Light-Weld material 3013 Series is designed for rapid bonding of a wide variety of plastics, as well as metal substrates. This product ® fluoresces blue for in-line inspection under low intensity “black” light (365 nm). DYMAX Ultra Light-Weld materials contain no nonreactive solvents and cure upon exposure to light. Their ability to cure in seconds enables faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs. When cured with DYMAX light curing spot lamps, focused beam lamps, or flood lamps, they deliver optimum speed and performance for industrial product assembly. DYMAX lamps offer the optimum balance of UV and visible light for the fastest, deepest cures. This product is in full compliance with the RoHS Directives 2002/95/EC and 2003/11EC.

CURING GUIDELINES
DEPTH OF CURE
Fixture time is defined as the time to develop a shear strength of 0.1 N/mm2 [10 psi] between glass slides. Actual cure time typically is 3 to 5 times fixture time.
The graphs below show the increase in depth of cure as a function of exposure time with two different lamps at different intensities. A 9.5 mm [0.37 in] diameter specimen was cured in a polypropylene mold and cooled to room temperature. It was then released from the mold and the cure depth was measured.

Intensity was measured over the UVA range (320-395 nm) using a DYMAX ACCU-CAL™ 50 Radiometer.
B
Curing through light blocking substrates may require longer cure times if they obstruct wavelengths used for light curing (320-400 nm for UV light curing, 320-450 nm for UV/visible light curing). These fixture times/belt speeds are typical for curing thin films through 100% light transmitting substrates. At 53 mm [2.1 in] focal distance. Maximum speed of conveyor is 8.2 m/min [27 ft/min]. Intensity was measured over the UVA range (320395 nm) using the DYMAX ACCU-CAL™ 100 Radiometer.
