* For parts with uniform face-cast layers of 5-15mm, allow 16 - 24 hours of final cure time prior to demoulding. To avoid creep, always store parts on a flat surface without stressing. Follow recommendation for curing before subjecting the parts to loading. Shrinkage measurement using test specimen size 500 x 50 x 10mm.

Caution Handling Huntsman Advanced Materials products are generally quite harmless to handle provided that certain precautions 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 be taken to prevent the uncured materials from coming in contact with the skin, since people with particularly sensitive skin 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 cleansed 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. These precautions are described in greater detail in publication No. 24264/3/e Hygienic precautions for handling plastics products and in the Material Safety Data sheets for the individual products. These publications are available on request and should be referred to for fuller information.
