About this file
This is a technical product specification document for SoudaSeal FC, a silyl-terminated polymer adhesive/sealant distributed by Soudal, Inc. from Manassas, Virginia. The document provides comprehensive technical data and performance characteristics for the product, which is available in multiple colors including white, gray, black, concrete gray, and beige, packaged in 10.1 fl. oz. cartridges. SoudaSeal FC demonstrates excellent adhesion on porous and non-porous substrates including metals, polyesters, and many plastics, with a service temperature range of -40°F to +194°F and total joint movement accommodation of ±20 percent. The product exhibits a tack-free time of 90 minutes, full cure time of 24-72 hours at 75°F and 50 percent relative humidity, and a shelf life of 12 months when stored between 41°F and 77°F. The sealant meets ASTM C 920, Type S, Grade NS, Class 25, and Federal Specification TT-S-00230C standards.
The product is designed for professional use in building and construction, metal working, sanitary and kitchen applications, automotive structural bonding, and panel sealing applications. SoudaSeal FC offers ecological advantages including freedom from isocyanates, solvents, halogens, and acids, with minimal health and safety considerations. Surface preparation requires clean, dry surfaces free of dust and grease, with optional primer treatment recommended for porous surfaces in water-loaded applications. The adhesive can be applied using manual or pneumatic caulking guns at temperatures between 34°F and 90°F and may be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol immediately after use. Soudal provides a limited warranty replacing or refunding defective products within one year of shipment, with all claims requiring written notice.

Revision 03/2010
SoudaSeal FC
Adhesion:
SoudaSeal FC has an excellent adhesion on almost all substrates. SoudaSeal FC has been tested on the following metal surfaces: steel, AlMgSi1, brass, electrolytic galvanized steel, AlCuMg1, flame galvanized steel, AlMg3 and steel ST1403.
Plastics that were tested include: polystyrene, polycarbonate (Makrolon®), PVC, polyamide, glasfiber reinforced epoxy and polyester (GRP). While producing plastics very often releasing agents, processing aids and other protective agents (like protection foil) are used. These should be removed prior to bonding. For optimum adhesion the use of Surface Activator is recommended. NOTICE: bonding plastics like polycarbonate (ie Makrolon® or Lexan®) in stress loaded applications can give rise to stress cracking and crazing in these substrates. The use of SoudaSeal FC is not recommended in these applications. There is no adhesion on PE, PP, PTFE (Teflon®) and PMMA (ie Plexi® glass).
Substrates:
Type: all usual building surfaces, most metals, polyesters and many plastics. Not suitable for PE, PP, PTFE (Teflon®), ABS or PMMA (ie Plexi® glass).
Surface Preparation: clean, dry, free of dust and grease � it is expected that the product will adhere and perform in uncontaminated joints with most common construction substrates, without the use of a primer
� porous surfaces in water loaded applications should be primed with Primer 150 surface activator may be used to pretreat non-porous surfaces
� we always recommend preliminary compatibility tests pervious to application
Resistance to chemical agents:
Good resistance to water, aliphatic solvents, mineral oils, grease, diluted inorganic acids and alkalis. Poor resistance to aromatic solvents, concentrated acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Remarks:
� Pre-testing for adhesion is intended to eliminate potential filed problems. This testing will aid in determining the proper surface preparation method.
� May be painted, however due to the large number of paints and varnishes available we strongly suggest a compatibility test before application. The drying time of alkyd resin based paints may increase.
� Can be applied to a wide variety of substrates. Due to the fact that specific substrates such as plastics, like polycarbonate, etc. may differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, we recommend preliminary compatibility tests.
� Porous surfaces in water loaded applications should be primed with Primer 150.
� Lower temperatures and humidity will extend curing time.
Bonding Layer:
We recommend a bonding layer of at least ¾” to achieve a bond with maximum elastic properties.
Application:
Method: Manual- or pneumatic caulking gun Application temperature: 34°F to +90°F Cleaning: with IPA immediately after use and before curing Repair with: SoudaSeal FC
Meets:
ASTM C 920, Type S, Grade NS, Class 25, Use T, NT, M, A, G and O, Federal Specification TT-S-00230C, Type II, Class A
Health- and Safety Recommendation:
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Avoid skin and eye contact. On Contact, uncured sealant could cause irritation to skin and eyes. In case of eye contact, flush eyes with warm water for 15 minutes, call a physician. For skin contact, remove sealant with a paper towel. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting, call a physician. SoudaSeal FC is manufactured for professional use only. Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for further information.
