Overview of LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC
LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC is a solvent-based, semi-permanent mold release agent formulated for demanding composite molding applications. It is designed to be applied to mold surfaces at room temperature up to 60°C by spraying, brushing, or wiping with a clean, lint-free cloth, giving molders a practical release solution for epoxies, polyesters, and vinyl ester systems.
Maximum releases are obtained as the mold surface becomes conditioned to LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC, and performance can be enhanced by re-coating once after the first few initial pulls. This conditioning behavior is a key consideration for molders planning production schedules around this release agent.
Typical Properties of LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC
LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC has a specific gravity of 0.715 to 0.725 at 25°C. Flash point information is provided in the safety data sheet. These typical values should not be interpreted as specifications.

Directions for Use
LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC can be applied to mold surfaces at room temperature up to 60°C by spraying, brushing, or wiping with a clean, lint-free cloth. When spraying, ensure a dry air source is used or use an airless spray system, and always work in a well-ventilated area.
- Wipe or spray on a smooth, thin, continuous, wet film. Avoid re-coating the same area until the solvent has evaporated. If spraying, hold the nozzle 20 to 30cm from the mold surface, working progressively from one side of the mold to the other.
- Initially apply 2 to 3 base coats, allowing 5 to 10 minutes between coats for solvent evaporation.
- Allow the final coat to cure for 5 to 10 minutes at 22°C before molding.
- When release difficulty is experienced, the affected area can be touched up by re-coating the entire mold surface or just the areas where release difficulty is occurring.
Handling Precautions for LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC
LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC is moisture sensitive, so the container should be kept tightly closed when not in use, and the product should always be used in a well-ventilated area. Users of closed mold systems, such as rotomolding, must confirm that solvent evaporation is complete and that all solvent vapors have been ventilated from the mold cavity before closing the mold. An oil-free compressed air source can be used to assist in solvent evaporation and mold cavity ventilation.
Why Sourcing Consistency Matters for Buyers
Because release performance and mold conditioning depend on consistent product quality, buyers should confirm current specifications for LOCTITE FREKOTE 770-NC against the latest technical data sheet before scheduling a production run. A supplier that consistently delivers this release agent to its stated specific gravity reduces the need to re-qualify a molding process with every new batch.
