  • Water-resistant for applications inside products such as wearable devices

3M™ Scotch-Weld™ One-Part Epoxy Adhesive 6101 Off-White is a one-part epoxy exhibiting a low temperature cure or fast high temperature cure with long room temperature pot life. It is flexible and toughened resulting in high impact performance.

Room-Temperature Stability with Low-Temp and Fast High-Temp Cure Options
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ One-Part Epoxy Adhesive 6101 delivers production advantages such as extended repositioning and stability: up to 4 weeks at 77°F (25°C). (Shelf life of up to 18 months at -4°F (-20°C) for extended storage.) This allows larger quantities to be stored near the production area as well as reducing waste by eliminating mixing and tip clogging during extended shutdowns. The heat-cured one-part epoxy also offers adjustable curing to meet production needs. For heat-sensitive materials such as certain plastics or near batteries and magnets, it reaches handling strength in 10 minutes and cures in 20 minutes at 149°F (65°C). For faster production, less heat-sensitive applications can cure in just 3 minutes at 194°F (90°C).

In addition to production flexibility, 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ One-Part Epoxy Adhesive 6101 delivers tough, water-resistant bonds that provide mechanical support and protection to circuits and delicate electronic components. The adhesive remains flexible after cure with 100% elongation and forms strong bonds on a variety of substrates including glass-filled nylon, PC and ABS in addition to metals. Up to 3.1 joules of energy absorption provide impact resistance that can stand up to bumps, drops and falls.
