Bonding in Extreme Temperatures (ForzaBOND IC932)

Key Takeaways

•ForzaBOND IC932 delivers consistent, high-performing bonds from freezing cold to intense heat.
•Preparation and application technique become more critical at the temperature extremes.

Introduction: Adhesive Innovation for Harsh Environments

Construction, transport, and refrigeration demand adhesives that never fail—no matter the weather or process cycles.

Expertise in Chemistry

• Flexible Polymer Architecture: ForzaBOND’s proprietary blend resists embrittlement at -40°F and remains stable above 200°F.
• Toughened Resin System: Ensures minimal creep, high elasticity, and full adhesion even after repeated temperature cycling.

Application Guidelines

• Acclimate both adhesive and substrate to “median” temperature for best results.
• Adhere strictly to recommended open/cure times—they can change at temperature limits.
• Surface Prep is even more vital: cold makes contaminants more persistent; heat can cause outgassing.

Inside Industry

•HVAC installers use ForzaBOND IC932 for ductwork and panel seams, crediting low-temp flexibility for reduced callback rates.

FAQs

Q: Is extra curing time needed in cold?
A: Yes—expect doubled or tripled cure times below freezing, unless using “cold cure” variants.

Q: Is any special equipment needed?
A: Forza provides full cold/hot guidance and, if required, custom dispensing tools for in-field work.\
