DESCRIPTION
MAX 5MIN A/B is a two-part toughened epoxy/polymercaptan resin system that provides fast setup time suitable for bonding, general assembly, and construction. It is an improved performance equivalent to the common 5-minute epoxy resins that are typically supplied in dual-syringe packaging but formulated to provide higher tensile shear and peel strength.
This offering is presented at a much lower bulk pricing than the common pre-packaged kits typically offered in commercial hardware stores. MAX 5MIN A/B offers higher peel strength than the conventional 5- minute systems which makes it suitable for a wider selection of bondable substrates.
THIS KIT INCLUDES A SET OF YORKER CAPS FOR CONTROLLED DISPENSING.
Use these Yorker caps to dispense the material with ease and minimize over pouring and reduce spills. We do not recommend using
dispensing pumps. The curing agent or part B of any epoxy resin system is sensitive to moisture and carbon dioxide, which will react with the curing agent and form carbamate crystals (salt-like crystals that form on the tip of the pump) and reduce reactivity.
Unless the kit is used continuously and within a short period of time, using dispensing pumps will cause more problems than ease-of-use. The pumps leave the bottle open to moisture (from the pressure-relief hole) and unless you plan on using the whole kit in less than a month, the curing agent will degrade and cause other curing problems.
CARBAMATE CRYSTALS THAT FORM ON THE PUMP WHEN THE CURING AGENT IS EXPOSED AMBIENT  MOISTURE AND CARBON DIOXIDE. THESE CRYSTALS ARE INSOLUBLE IN EPOXY RESIN RESULTING IN CONTAMINATION AND CAUSES POOR CURE AND AMINE-BLUSHING.
Use these Yorker caps and cut the tip to meter the orifice of the of the tip for accurate dispensing.  When done, just replace the tip cap and it will exclude ambient moisture and air and keep the resin system viable for years.
To use the caps, cut off the tip to the desired hole size, and attach, do not cut pass the ridgeline that keeps the tip cap in place. To dispense, lay the plastic jug unto its side and apply pressure on the bottle to dispense the contents.
When done replace the tip cap and the container is sealed and it will be usable for years.
We highly recommend using a scale to measure each component accurately.
RESIN CRYSTALLIZATION FROM PROLONGED STORAGE OR COLD WEATHER EXPOSURE
The resin component or the PART A may crystallize due to cold temperature exposure.
Please inspect the resin component for any solidified crystals which will appear as waxy solid or cloudiness on the bottom of the PART A bottle. An information postcard is included with each package.

MAX 5MIN A/B can be used for bonding composites, metals, concrete, glass, wood and almost all types of substrates. It offers ease of use, fast set-up time and adequate bond
strength for light to medium duty adhesive applications.
It can also be used as a fast setting impregnating resin for fiberglass, Kevlar and carbon fiber reinforcing and field repairs or as fast casting resin of small to medium parts for rapid prototyping. MAX 5MIN A/B can also be used for waterproofing of porous or absorbent substrates such as wood, textiles masonry and stone substrates.
MAX 5MIN A/B can be used as an adhesive to bond to plastic substrates such ABS, Polypropylene (PP), High and Low-Density Polyethylene (HDPE and LDPE) and Polyethylene Terephthalate ( PET) with proper surface pre-treatment before any significant adhesion develops due to the inherent  low surface tension or substrates that demonstrate poor wettability.
Corona treating or Flame Treating the plastic as demonstrated below enables MAX 5MIN A/B adequate surface bonding of plastic substrates.

Structural Bonding Guidelines
Flame Treating Of Plastic To Improve Adhesion For Plastics
Note the fluid behavior on the flame treated area demonstrating improved substrate wetting thus making adhesion possible for polymers such as adhesives and inks. The untreated are demonstrates poor substrate wetting and it is not suitable for resin application. The bond strength of any coating or adhesive yields low adhesion due to the poor substrate wetting. The plastic substrate requires surface treatment to improve wetting. Plastics like HDPE, LDPE, and UHMW are considered low-surface-energy plastics requires flame treating to create a bondable surface.

Flame Treatment
Flame treatment increases the bondability of the plastic surface by oxidizing the surface through brief exposure to flame. The oxidation proceeds by a free radical mechanism, accompanied by chain scissions and some crosslinking. The functionalities introduced by oxidation are hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, and amide groups with a typical oxidation depth of approximately 4 to 9 nanometers. The improved bondability results from increased wettability, due to increased surface energy, and interfacial diffusivity, caused by chain scissions.
SURFACE PREPARATION OF VARIOUS SUBSTRATES FOR BONDING
In virtually every application the quality of the bond between the resin system and the surface to which it is applied is improved if the surface is clean and dry. This is particularly true of adhesive applications where stress will be applied to the cured bond line. It is also true where protective coatings are used. The following surface preparation procedures are recommended.
METALS
1. Degrease – Wipe faying surfaces with Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) to remove all oil, dirt, and grease.
2. Etch – For optimum results, metal parts should be immersed in a chromic acid bath solution consisting of :
Sodium dichromate – 4 parts by
weight
Sulfuric
acid – 10 parts by
weight
Water
– 30 parts by
weight
The
solution should be held at a temperature of 160°F (71°C), and the parts left immersed for 5 to 7 minutes.
3. Rinse – remove metal parts from etching bath and rinse in clean cold water (de-ionized water is recommended). If thoroughly clean, metal surfaces so treated will hold a thin film of water.
4. Dry – To accelerate drying, items to be bonded can be placed in an air-circulating oven.
ALTERNATE PROCEDURE
1. Degrease, scour and dry – Often etching as outlined above is not practical. The metal surfaces may be cleaned by degreasing as noted above, scouring with an alkaline cleanser followed by rinsing and drying.
2. Degrease and dry – Degrease the surface as noted above, sand or sandblast the surface lightly but thoroughly. Rinse with acetone or Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), and dry
GLASS
1. Degrease – With MEK as above, or with a strong boiling solution of a good grade household detergent.
2. Etch – For optimum results, degreasing can be followed with the chromic acid bath outlined above.
WOOD
1. Sand – Bonding surfaces should be sanded lightly, but thoroughly to remove all external contamination.
2. Clean – Carefully remove all dust, or particles of wood from sanded areas. A stiff and clean brush or compressed air can be used.
PLASTIC
1. Clean – Remove all dirt, oil, or other surface contaminates with soap and water, followed by thorough rinsing and allow to dry. A solvent that does not have a detrimental effect may also be used.
2. Sand – Surfaces to be bonded should be sanded lightly, but thoroughly to remove surface sheen.
3. Clean – Carefully remove all dust or particles of plastic from the sanded area. A clean brush, lint-free cloth, or compressed air may be used.

Proportioning the correct amount is equally as important to attain the intended cured properties of the resin system.
T
he container in which the epoxy and curing agent is mixed is an important consideration when mixing an epoxy resin system.
The container must withstand the tenacity of the chemical and must be free of contamination.
Most epoxy curing agent has a degree of corrosivity, as a general practice, protective gloves should be worn when handling chemicals of the same nature.
