Baytec® 33965-1

Baytec 33965-1 is a filled elastomer system developed for pool and spa applications. This system can be used to encapsulate filter media by casting fully structural end-caps. Baytec 33965-1 forms a tough, durable elastomer with excellent impact resistance and a hardness of 80 Shore D. Parts made with Baytec 33965-1 also have excellent resistance to common pool and spa chemicals. As with any product, use of Baytec 33965-1 system in a given application must be tested (including but not limited to field testing) in advance by the user to determine suitability.

Avoid moisture contamination during storage, handling and processing. For both components, pad containers with either nitrogen or dry air (desiccant cartridge or air dryer at -40°C (-40°F) dew point). Store polyol component from 18°C to 30°C (64°F to 86°F). Mix polyol component to a homogenous state before use and before removing any material from container. For optimum shelf life, the recommended storage temperature for the isocyanate component is 18°C to 30°C (64°F to 86°F). Do not expose isocyanate component to lowers temperatures – freezing may occur.

Storage period for both components is 6 months after ship date to customer when stored in sealed original containers under previously stated storage conditions.

Mix polyol Component B before use and before removing any material from container, but avoid air entrainment. Polyol Component B contains solids. Cycle time depends on mold and curing temperature. Tooling with good heat transfer characteristics, such as milled aluminum, can reduce the cycle time. Use a high-quality, properly applied release agent to prevent cured elastomer from sticking to mold surfaces. Protect isocyanate Component A from moisture.
