Pacer Technology’s RX Series Range Extended cyanoacrylate adhesives are a family of non-surface sensitive
adhesives for porous, acidic, contaminated, or hard-to-bond substrates, such as certain plastics and plated
surfaces. Viscosities range from water-thin to a non-running gel to fit a variety of application requirements.

APPLICATION AND CURE CHARACTERISTICS:
For best results, parts should be clean, free from oil and grease or other contaminants. Apply adhesive to
one surface to be bonded and mate the other surface to it carefully without delay. For best results, use a
minimal amount of adhesive. In general, one free-falling drop covers one square inch of bond area. Avoid
over-application, as excess adhesive is difficult to remove from unwanted areas.
Fixture time occurs in 1-5 minutes with 80% of full strength developing in 15-30 minutes. Fixture time and
full cure rates are dependent upon temperature, relative humidity, bondline thickness, and substrates being
bonded.
To speed full cure through larger gaps, Pacer accelerators for instant adhesives are compatible and can be
used. Post application of accelerators to exposed adhesive may cause a white frosting (chlorosis) of the
exposed adhesive onto parts, which can usually be removed using Pacer X-9 Debonder and a cotton swab.
Overall cure strength can be decreased as a result of using accelerators. Testing on actual parts is
recommended.
STORAGE AND SHELF LIFE:
Refrigerate unopened cyanoacrylate for optimal results. Once opened, store in a cool, dry location away
from heat sources. Stored under these conditions, a one-year shelf life can be expected.
APPROVALS:

SAFETY AND HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
Cyanoacrylate adhesives bond skin in seconds. In case of skin contact, flush with water. If skin becomes
bonded, peel (do not pull) apart after immersion in warm, soapy water. In case of eye or mouth contact,
flush with water and get immediate medical attention.
Use with adequate ventilation. Vapors can irritate eyes and mucous membranes. Symptoms disappear after
removal of individual from vapors. Avoid contact with clothing as it can cause burns. For more information,
refer to the Safety Data Sheet available upon request or from our website at: http://www.supergluecorp.com
