Solvay METLBOND® 1515-3 Film Adhesive
Categories:	Polymer; Adhesive; Thermoset; Epoxy; Epoxy Adhesive
Material Notes:	Description: Metlbond® 1515-3 and Metlbond 1515-3 MHT are 350°F (177°C) curing modified epoxy supported film adhesives. Metlbond 1515-3 can also be cured at 250°F (121°C). Its maximum continuous service temperature range is 275°F to 320°F (135°C to 160°C). Metlbond 1515-3 is available in medium- and high-tack (HT) versions which give the same mechanical and physical properties. Metlbond 1515-3 is commonly used for BMS 5-154 metal-to-metal and composite bonding and BMS 8-341 cosmetic surfacing. Features & Benefits: Industry standard for composite bonding and surfacing applications Designed for co-curing, secondary bonding, co-bonding of composite materials Provides excellent surfacing characteristics Good resistance to pre-cure humidity Available in a variety of weights and carriers Bonds metal-to-metal, metal-to-core and composites Co-cures with most 350°F (177°C) curing prepregs Shelf life of 12 months at 0°F (-18°C) or 1 month at 40°F (4°C) Shop life of 15 days at 75°F (24°C) Applications: Metal-to-metal bonding Composite bonding Cosmetic surfacing Information provided by Cytec, subsequently acquired by Solvay.
