BETAMATE™ 2090
Crash resistant 2-Component Structural Adhesive

Description / Application:
BETAMATE™ 2090 is a two component glass beads containing epoxy based adhesive especially developed for
applications on which a high glass transition temperature and a quick curing is required. The adhesive is used in
the car to increase the operation durability, the crash performance and the body stiffness.

Properties:
Excellent adhesion to automotive steels, including coated steels (e.g. e-coated or organic coated steel) and
pretreated aluminum
 A high glass transition temperature
Fast curing Hand free after approx. one hour
 Helps to increase or restore the stiffness and the crash stability of the entire car body
 High durability of the adhesive and the adhesive bond
 Due to its sealing capability the metal and weld points are protected against corrosion
 Compatible with other mechanical and thermal joining techniques

Application:
The product is cold pumpable and applicable as a bead (mixing ratio 2:1; static or dynamic). It can be applied with
the following parameters:

application speed Up to 300 mm/s

temperatures: recommended:
follower plate cold
follower plate - doser cold
nozzle cold

For an optimum tack of the adhesive, the parts to bond should be stored at 15°C or higher. In case of an application
break longer than 20 minutes the mixer should changed.

All Dow Automotive products are primarily developed in co-operation with the automobile
manufacturers, according to their needs and their specifications; they are approved for the specific
applications as defined by the customer.

The use of the product other than approved application have to be released in written form by the
Technical Service of Dow Automotive.

Bonding Surface Preparation Oily surfaces should be cleaned

Application Tool Cartridges:


side by side cartridge: hand-operated gun with mechanical
piston: Mixpac DM 200-01.
Single cartridge (components one after another): Application
with a standard 1-component hand-operated or pneumatic
gun with piston bar (no direct air guns !).
1-component battery guns may be used, if they are equipped
with adjustable feed.

Drums, pails: With standard 2K-based systems

 If BM 2090™ is applied out of cartridges it is necessary to


Application notes
equalize the filling levels.
 For the best performance it is recommended to reject the
first few grams of mixed adhesive.
 During the storage time a crystallization of the resin may
occur. By heating the adhesive to 40 - 50 °C for about 15 to
30 minutes this physical process is reversible. All properties
stay on the same level.
 Before the application the material temperature of both the
resin and the hardener should be at min. 15°C.

Cleaning Uncured material can be removed with BETACLEAN 3510.


Attention: The contact with bonded areas should be avoided.

Drums and Pails: Upon request


Containers
2-component cartridges: 195ml two-in-one cartridge

Shelf life Storable at temperatures under 30°C for 12 months.

The given data are standard values.

Health and Safety:
 Bulk Exothermic Reaction
The material curing reaction is exothermic. If the material is held in bulk the reaction is accompanied by a
rapid build-up of exothermic heat. To avoid the risk of this bulk exothermy, containers of the material should
in no circumstances be heated by e.g. hot plates or simple drum heaters. If heating a bulk quantity of the
material is considered necessary, advice should be sought.

 Caution
The adhesive resins are generally quite harmless to handle provided that certain precautions normally taken
when handling chemicals are observed. The uncured materials must not, for instance, be allowed to come
into contact with foodstuffs or food utensils, and measures should also be taken to prevent the uncured
materials, from coming into contact with skin, since people with particularly sensitive skins may be affected.
The wearing of impervious rubber or plastic gloves will normally be necessary; likewise the use of eye
protection. The skin should be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each working period by washing with soap
and warm water. The use of solvents is to be avoided. Disposable paper - not cloth towels - should be used
to dry the skin. Adequate ventilation of the working area is recommended. For further and more detailed
precaution measures see the Health and Safety Data Sheet.
