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:
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.
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.
