Nycote 88

nycote-88

Apply Nycote® 88 to substrates that need protection from corrosion, electrical conduction and friction. It comes in an easy-to-use two-part component. Combining the two components results in a three-hour window before the formula begins to set.

Our products are easily applied by painting, spraying or dipping areas that need protection from aircraft fuels, oil, lubricants, phosphate ester hydraulic fluids, salt spray and water. Nycote® 88 also provides excellent high impact, abrasion resistance, flexibility and toughness at temperatures of -70°F to +300°F (-57°C to +149°C). NSN: 8010-01-530-5341

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

STORAGE TEMPERATURE
REQUIREMENTS

VIEW MORE
  • Store at 70°F (21°C). Keep away from fire or flame.
  • Note: Ideal storage temperature is 70°F (21°C); acceptable storage range is between 65°F to 80°F (18.3°C to 26.7°C). Storing below 65°F (18.3°C) may cause cloudiness or gel; heat at 180°F (82°C) for two hours. This should restore the product to its normal liquid condition. If possible, re-verify viscosity with Zahn #2 cup (21-27 seconds).
  • Nycote® 88 has a 12 month shelf life provided that the accelerator is not added to base product. Once the accelerator has been added, the formula has a three-hour application window before hardening process begins.

CURE TIME TABLE

VIEW MORE
  • Allow one to two hours air dry to become tack free. In dry air allow 72 hours at room temperature for full cure or:
  • Heat twelve hours @ 120°F (49°C)
  • Heat eight hours @ 150°F (66°C)
  • Heat four hours @ 180°F (82°C)
  • Heat two hours @ 220°F (105°C)
  • Cure film temperature range is -70°F to +300°F (-57°C to 149°C)

* Always check with your own internal engineering department to ensure materials you intend to force cure can withstand the temperatures listed on the Nycote table.
