Terostat MS 939 is a gun-grade, one-component sealant QUV source: QUV
based on silane modified polymers, which cures by reaction weatherometer acc.

curing times are dependent on humidity and temperature, and Test period, weeks: 6
the curing time also depends on joint depth. By increasing the Reference IEC 61215/61646 clause 10.13:

used for interior and exterior applications. Terostat MS 939 air humidity
demonstrates the strength necessary for elastic bonding. This
property of the product also remains at the temperatures in
repair ovens (max. 100°C). Terostat MS 939 shows no
shrinkage, and therefore dimpling and tension stress are not Certificates and Approvals

Pre-Treatment:
The substrates must be clean, dry, oil- and grease free.
Depending on the surface it can be necessary to roughen the
surface or to use a primer/adhesion promoter to provide best
adhesion. When manufacturing plastics, external release
agents are often used; these agents must be accurately
removed prior to starting bonding or sealing. Due to the
different compositions of paints, especially powder paints and
the large number of different substrates, application trials
before use are necessary. For cleaning, Cleaner + Diluent A,
FL or Terostat 450 from the Henkel portfolio are suitable.
Especially for plastics and coatings - powder coatings -
Terostat 450 has to be tested. When bonding and sealing
PMMA, e.g. Plexiglas®, and polycarbonate, e.g. Makrolon®
or Lexan®, under tension, stress corrosion cracking may
occur. Application trials before use are necessary. There is no
adhesion to polyethylene, polypropylene and PTFE.
Substrates not mentioned above should be subject to trials.

Application:
Application from 310 ml cartridges is made with the Teroson
Hand or Air Pressure Pistols, and from plastic wallets (310
and 570 ml) with the corresponding FK-Hand or FK-Air
Pressure Pistols. In the case of compressed air application a
pressure of 2 to 5 bar is required. Low material temperatures
of the sealant will lead to an increase of viscosity, resulting in
a lower extrusion rate. This can be avoided by bringing the
sealant up to room temperature prior to application. If
substrates are too cold, temperature may fall below dew point
causing condensation. This can be avoided by bringing the
substrates up to room temperature in time. Terostat MS 939
can also be applied from hobbocks or drums with high
pressure pumps with follower plates. See separate
application directions of Terostat MS products in hobbocks
and drums.

Cleaning:
For cleaning application equipment contaminated with
uncured Terostat MS 939 we recommend the use of cleaners
+ diluents A or FL.
