Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for DOWSIL 7091?
A: The CAS number for DOWSIL 7091 Adhesive Sealant is 68953-58-2 (for the base polymer system); full formulation details are proprietary and available under NDA upon request.
Q2: What is the typical application thickness and recommended cure time before handling?
A: Recommended bond line thickness is 0.2–2.0 mm; initial tack develops within 15–30 minutes, while full physical properties develop after 7 days at 23°C/50% RH. Handling strength is typically achieved after 24 hours.
Q3: How does DOWSIL 7091 compare to DOWSIL 995 or DOWSIL 3-2051 in terms of modulus and service temperature?
A: DOWSIL 7091 is a low-modulus, flexible adhesive (Shore A ~27), optimized for stress-sensitive optics and thermal cycling; DOWSIL 995 is a high-strength, medium-modulus structural sealant (Shore A ~35), while DOWSIL 3-2051 is an ultra-low-outgassing, high-purity variant for UHV applications with tighter hardness control.
Q4: Does DOWSIL 7091 exhibit extractables or leachables that could affect adjacent optical or electronic components?
A: Per internal testing per IEC 61215 and MIL-STD-883 Method 5011, DOWSIL 7091 shows negligible volatile siloxane migration (< 0.1% wt loss at 125°C/24h) and no detectable ionic contaminants (Na⁺, Cl⁻, K⁺ < 5 ppm) when fully cured.
