Huntsman Araldite AV 4076-1 Epoxy Adhesive, 25 kg

Description

Huntsman Araldite AV 4076-1 is the resin side of a two-component epoxy paste adhesive used with Hardener HY 4076. Araldite AV 4076-1 is built for resilient bonding where the joint needs gap filling, non-sag placement, and strength on selected plastics and metals.

Araldite AV 4076-1 Benefits

• Thixotropic paste helps keep adhesive in place on vertical joints and uneven bond lines.
• Non-sag performance up to 10 mm supports gap filling without excessive flow.
• Room-temperature cure supports shop bonding without oven-only processing.
• Suitable substrate list includes SMC, polycarbonate, ABS, and metals when prepared correctly.
• Resilient bond profile suits assemblies that need peel and shear performance.

This 25 kg package is a production-scale resin container for teams already qualified on the AV 4076-1 and HY 4076 system. It should be ordered with the matching hardener, current data sheet, and the correct dispensing or mixing process.

Where Araldite AV 4076-1 Fits

• Bonding SMC panels and molded composite parts.
• Joining polycarbonate, ABS, and selected plastic assemblies.
• Metal bonding where a paste epoxy is easier to control than a liquid grade.
• Gap-fill joints up to the published non-sag limit.
• Production, repair, and prototype work using Huntsman Araldite epoxy systems.

Surface Preparation And Use

Clean each substrate, remove loose contamination, and abrade or prime surfaces when the approved process requires it. Confirm the resin-to-hardener pairing before mixing, then apply within the listed pot life for the batch size and temperature.

Do not assume plastic compatibility from the material name alone. Test actual parts, surface treatments, and cure conditions before moving into production.

Technical Details And Documentation

Huntsman lists the AV 4076-1 and HY 4076 system as a two-component room-temperature curing paste adhesive with resilient bond performance, 10 mm non-sag capability, and suitability for SMC, polycarbonate, ABS, and metals. Review current manufacturer information from Huntsman before changing an approved bonding process.
