2、XPANSION PERFORMANCE WSS-M18P11-B REQUIREMENT, HEAT CURING 1. SCOPE This material defines the performance requirements for a die cut or extruded sealer that expands upon exposure to heat. This material can be supplied with or without a pressure sensitive adhesive coating (PSA) or a release liner. 2

3、APPLICATION The specification was released originally for materials used in the body shop area for sealing openings in sheet metal surfaces. This material can be supplied with or without an aggressive pressure sensitive adhesive which promotes adhesion to oily, uncleaned cold rolled and galvanized s

4、teel. This material expands during the electrocoat bake schedules per para. 4.2. Material cure is critical to long term material performance. It is recommended that time/temperature data packs be placed on a vehicle in the intended locations to determine the time at temperature requirements for a gi

5、ven application prior to release. The on-vehicle material time at electrocoat oven temperatures must fall within the cure window for the approved material. After release, periodic follow-up time/temperature checks are recommended to insure cure performance is maintained. The Manufacturing Properties

6、 and Engineering Performance requirements defined in this specification are based on laboratory sample testing and define the minimum acceptance criteria for adhesive/polymer material performance. The function and design requirements for the engineered part are defined by the component SDS (Sub-syst

7、em Design Specification), key life test requirements, or vehicle program requirements. Prior to use, the engineered part must be evaluated under the intended application processing parameters. The choice of substrates, stamping lubricants, stamping and assembly plant processing conditions and specif

8、ic design application may affect engineered part performance. Compliance with this specification does not guarantee the engineered part will function for all potential applications on a vehicle. 3.
