在防爆電氣應用領域, 黏合劑需要表現出強大的黏合強度, 出色的耐候性, 和可靠的熱穩定性.
正如在 “爆炸性環境部分 1: 設備一般要求,” 黏合劑被認為是熱穩定的, 其固化操作溫度 (COT) range must comply with specific criteria. The lower boundary of the COT should not surpass the equipment’s minimum operating temperature, while its upper limit must be at least 20K above the maximum operating temperature of the equipment. Meeting these parameters ensures the adhesive’s adequacy in terms of thermal stability.
