LOCTITE®FREKOTE 55NC™ is a release agent where a non-transferring release is necessary. This semi-permanent, non-migratory release system chemically bonds to the mold surface to form a micro thin film which is stable at temperatures exceeding most molding processes. LOCTITE®FREKOTE 55NC™ can be used for the release of epoxies, polyester resins, thermoplastics, adhesives, and rotationally molded plastics.

1. LOCTITE® FREKOTE 55NC™ 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. Always use in a well ventilated area.
2. Wipe or spray on a smooth, thin, continuous, wet film. Avoid wiping or spraying over the same area that was just coated until the solvent has evaporated. If spraying, hold nozzle 20 to 30cm from mold surface. It is suggested that small areas be coated, working progressively from one side of the mold to the other.
3. Initially, apply 2 to 3 base coats allowing 5 minutes between coats for solvent evaporation .
4. Allow the final coat to cure for 30 minutes at 22°C.
5. Maximum releases will be obtained as the mold surface becomes conditioned to LOCTITE® FREKOTE 55NC™. Performance can be enhanced by re-coating once, after the first few initial pulls.
6. NOTE: LOCTITE® FREKOTE 55NC™ is moisture sensitive, keep container tightly closed when not in use. The product should always be used in a well ventilated area.
7. Precaution: Users of closed mold systems (rotomolding) must be certain that solvent evaporation is complete and that all solvent vapors have been ventilated from the mold cavity prior to
closing the mold. An oil-free compressed air source can be used to assist in evaporation of solvents and ventilation of the mold cavity.
True high-gloss paste wax.
Withstands high-temperature exothermic reactions of resins and does multiple releases easily.
Contains carnauba wax, synthetic waxes and high-temperature resistant resins for effective multiple releases of plastic parts through numerous cycles.
