2、component, room temperature vulcanizing silicone rubber.2. APPLICATIONThis specification was released originally for material used as a sealantgasket between the rear axle housing and cover.3. REQUIREMENTS3.1 UNCURED PROPERTIES3.1.1 Color Black3.1.2 Application Rate 80 - 150 g/minute(0.62 MPa nozzle

3、 pressure,3.175 mm orifice)3.1.3 Tack-free Time, max 30 minutes(25 EC, 50% R.H.)3.1.4 Cure Rate PassTest Method: Apply a 3.18 mm diameter bead of sealer to asteel plate and allow the material to cure for 5 h at 25 + 3EC and 50 + 5% R.H. After 5 h, compress the sealer bead to aheight of 1.0 mm maximu

9、ear Lube (ESL-M2C105-A2)Test Method:. Squeeze sealant (0.508 mm thick) between metal disks. Hold disks in position with 0.508 mm shims and nut andbolt. Air cure (25 E C, 50% r.H.) assembly for 72 h. Soak assembly for 24 h at 121 EC in gear lube. After 24 h evaluate sealant for adhesion and lubecompa

10、tibility.Evaluation:. Evaluate lube compatibility by visually checking thesealant for excessive softening, dissolving or any otheradverse reaction. Evaluate adhesion by separating the disks. Acceptableadhesion is when a wedge must be forced between them toseparate the disks. There must be cohesive f
