Important Two-Component Material Information Important Two-Component Material Information Material Self-ignition Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two component materials. Isocyanate Conditions Some materials may become self-igniting if applied too thick. Read material manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Spraying or dispensing materials that contain isocyanates creates potentially harmful mists, Keep Components A and B vapors, and atomized particulates.
Important Two-Component Material Information Moisture Sensitivity of NOTE: The amount of film formation and rate of crystal- lization varies depending on the blend of ISO, the Isocyanates humidity, and the temperature. Exposure to moisture (such as humidity) will cause ISO Changing Materials to partially cure;...
Important Acid Catalyst Information Important Acid Catalyst Information This pump is designed for acid catalysts (“acid”) currently used in two-component, wood-finishing materials. Current acids in use (with pH levels as low as 1) are more corrosive than earlier acids. More corrosion-resistant wetted mate- rials of construction are required, and must be used without substitution, to withstand the increased corrosive proper- ties of these acids.
Models Models Check your displacement pump’s identification marking (ID) for the 6-digit part number. Use the following matrix to define the construction of your displace- ment pump, based on the six digits. For example, displacement pump Part No. LB100A represents a 303 stainless steel bellows style displacement pump, 100 cc, with 3 UHMWPE and 2 PTFE v-packings.
