  • Freeze-Thaw Stability:
    5 cycles freeze (-10 degrees F and thaw). Freeze-thaw stable.
     
  • Toxicity:
    Enclosed mice exposed to 30 cc volatized bonding agent for 1 hr. Non-toxic, no ill effects after 7 days.
     
  • Fire Resistance:
    ASTM E-119 (bonded assembly). Passed 2 hr. Fire Test 1800 degrees F and 1 hr. Hose Stream Test.
     
  • Flammability:
