ROYAL RP-5

Main features

  • Fast-setting general-purpose adhesive with 5-second fixture
  • Low 5 cps viscosity
  • Grit-blasted steel shear strength of 28 N/mm²

Product Description

RP5 General Purpose Adhesive is a medium-setting adhesive designed to bond a wide variety of similar and dissimilar materials. The clear, low-viscosity material has a reported viscosity of 5 cps and develops handling strength in 5 to 10 seconds, with full cure in 8 hours. The product is described as providing climatic, thermal, and impact resistance, while its elasticity supports bonding between dissimilar materials. Documented strength testing includes steel, aluminum, ABS, PVC, polycarbonate, phenolic, neoprene rubber, and nitrile rubber substrates.

Key features

  • Fast fixture and handling: Fixture cure is reported at 5 seconds, with handling strength developing in approximately 5 to 10 seconds.
  • Low-viscosity formulation: 5 cps viscosity supports application where a low-viscosity adhesive is required.
  • Broad documented substrate testing: Strength data are provided for metals, engineering plastics, phenolic, and rubber substrates.

Applications / Suitable for

  • General-purpose bonding of similar or dissimilar materials
  • Bonding applications involving metals, plastics, phenolic, and rubber substrates represented in the documented test data

Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application
