3M? Scotch-Weld? Void Filling and Edge Sealing Compound EC-3524 B/A is a

two-part flame retardant epoxy. Scotch-Weld EC-3524 B/A Compound can be used

for void filling, edge sealing, and as an abradable compound in aircraft engines. It is

available in blue or off-white when mixed.

Features ? Sandable within three hours of mixing.

? Cures to a strong, low-density material within 48 hours at 75°F (24°C).

? Meets the flammability requirements of F.A.R. 25.853 (a) and (b).

? The compound has thixotropic properties for ease of application.

? Base comes in blue or pale blue, accelerator is white to ensure complete and

uniform mixing.

? Can be used as a fairing compound for aerodynamic flushness.

? Reinforces honeycomb.

? Can be used for bonding inserts.

? Service temperature of 250°F (121°C).

? 100% solids.

? Seals and provides impact resistance to honeycomb panels edges.

? Paintable

100 grams of 3M? Scotch-Weld? Void Filling and Edge Sealing Compound

EC-3524 Part B and 94 grams of Part A were hand (spatula) mixed for 2-3 minutes

then cast into a block 2 in. x 3 in. x 6 in. and cured 48 hours at ambient laboratory

conditions. The following typical data were obtained on specimens cut from the

cured block.
