Curing Times
PRE-CURING
Room temperature 22°C (72°F)
using a longwave black light of15 watts (365 nm) approx. 25 mmabove the element
12 minutes
FULL CURING
Room temperature 22°C (72°F) without UV exposure or additional heat
48 hours
Safety Instructions
Although LENS BOND is quite safe to use, some persons may be sensitive to the chemicals,
and therefore, should use finger cots or gloves. Furthermore, adequate ventilation should be
provided.
Please note
Pre-cure time presupposes at least 70% UV transmission of the elements
being bonded. After pre-curing the elements can be placed in an oven at
70°C for 1 hour for full cure. But for best low stress results, room
temperature is suggested for full curing.
