Formulating

Hardeners The final properties of an ARALDITE MY 0816 system depend on the hardener selection. ARALDITE MY 0816 can be cured with the following amine hardeners (solid or liquid) Aradur 976-1 = 4,4 Diaminodiphenyl sulfone Aradur 9719-1 = 3,3 Diaminodiphenyl sulfone Lonzacure M-DIPA = 4,4- Methylenbis (2,6-diisopropylaniline)

The product should not be stored exposed to direct sunlight. Araldite MY 0816 may crystallize if stored for protracted periods under certain conditions. If this occurs, it can be restored to its original condition by heating it to 70 - 80 C (upper temperature limit) and stirring it thoroughly. Mandatory and recommended industrial hygiene procedures should be followed whenever our products are being handled and processed. For additional information please consult the corresponding product safety data sheets and the brochure "Hygienic precautions for handling plastics products".
