Diamond Dichtol AM

Product description

Dichtol AM is a very thin, high-performance polymer for infiltration, impregnation and sealing of porous structures, layers and components. Dichtol AM penetrates into porous structures and cracks on its own and seals them permanently and reliably. The product has a very high capillary activity and hardens under room conditions without the addition of heat. It is applied atmospherically, i.e. without vacuum or pressure. The hardened polymer fills the
open pores or cracks and has good resistance to oils, lubricants and coolants.

Characteristics

• License for use in 3D printing
• Efficient material consumption through targeted application even in the case of stray porosities
• Versatile application possibilities through dipping, injecting, spraying or brushing
• Good chemical resistance
• Temperature resistant up to + 300°C
• Drinking water and food approval

Typical applications

• Impregnation of metals, impregnation of castings and castings
• Sealing of thermally sprayed layers (sealer for APS, HVOF, LDS, flame spraying)
• Infiltration of 3D printed components, Additive Manufacturing, Generative Manufacturing

Application

The product is a 1-component system. Please note the application temperatures specified in the technical data. Application on surfaces that are too warm, as well as application at temperatures that are too low, can have a negative effect on the penetration properties of the sealer.

Painting & Spraying

Apply Dichtol crosswise in 4 steps at intervals of about 1 minute. Keep the surface moist for at least 5 minutes to ensure sufficient time for deep penetration.

Injecting & Filling

Pour Dichtol into the space to be sealed (e.g. blind hole, threaded hole, cooling channel, etc.) and allow to take effect for at least 5 minutes. Then pour off any excess material if necessary.

Dive

Immerse the component to be treated in Dichtol and remove it again after a contact time of at least 5 minutes. Please ensure that the component is allowed to drip dry properly. It is recommended that you move the component while it is dripping to prevent Dichtol deposits from forming in undercuts or cavities.

Curing

Dichtol AM hardens completely under room conditions. The hardening process can be accelerated by increasing the temperature.
