FAQ:
Q. Can I solder to Silver Conductive Epoxy?
A. No, Silver Conductive Epoxy has the temperature constraints of an epoxy and cannot be soldered to. Soldering to this product will cause it to melt.
Q. My 8331 product has a small discoloration. Is this a problem?
A. The discoloration is not a problem and will not affect the adhesive nor the conductive properties.

Hazards Identification
WHMIS Codes: B3, D2B
NFPA Ratings: Health 2 | Flammability 1 | Reactivity 0
HMIS Ratings: Health 2 | Flammability 1 | Reactivity 0
Eyes: Causes irritation.
Skin: Prolonged exposure may cause skin irritation. May cause allergic reaction in some individuals.
Inhalation: At room temperature, exposure to vapors is unlikely due to physical property of low volatility. Higher temperatures may generate vapor levels sufficient to cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, throat, and lungs).
Ingestion: Single dose oral toxicity is low. Amounts ingested incidental to industrial handling are not likely to cause injury; however, ingestion of large amounts may be harmful.
Chronic: Chronic inhalation or ingestion of silver salts may cause argyria characterized by a permanent blue-gray discoloration of the eyes, skin, mucous membranes, and internal organs. Inhalation and/or of fumes may cause metal fume fever, which is characterized by flu-like symptoms with metallic taste, fever, chills, cough, weakness, chest pain, muscle pain and increased white blood cell count
Fire Fighting Measures
Auto ignition Temperature: N/e
Flash Point: N/e
LEL / UEL: N/e
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or chemical foam.
Exposure Control
Routes of entry: Eyes, ingestion, inhalation, and skin.
Ventilation: Use adequate general or local exhaust ventilation to keep airborne concentrations below exposure limits.
Personal Protection: Wear appropriate protective eyeglasses or chemical safety goggles. Wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Use a NIOSH approved respirator when necessary.
Stability and Reactivity
Stability: Stable at normal temperatures and pressures.
Conditions to avoid: N/a
Incompatibilities: Avoid strong oxidizing agents, mineral acids, ethyleneimine, and strong mineral and organic bases.
Polymerization: Will undergo hazardous polymerization at elevated temperatures.
Decomposition: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and silver fumes.

Comments about MG Chemicals Silver Conductive Epoxy 14G:
Perfect for bonding elec. contacts in poorly accessible areas. Conductivity excellent--seems as good as silver solder. I applied the mixture to both contact areas and then when partially set held the two parts together with forceps--because clamping was not possible. It worked great-but faster cure would have helped.

Comments about MG Chemicals Silver Conductive Epoxy 14G:
I needed a product to reattach the connector for my AM/FM antenna, embedded in the rear glass of my car (the snap looking connector attached to the rear glass came off). MG Chemicals Silver Conductive Epoxy works PERFECTLY! The only "problem" is it needs heat to set-up correctly; It took me 3 times to realize this. I hit it with a hair dryer on high for about 15 minutes and the adhesive cured nicely and I again have radio! Again.... HEAT is necessary for this to work, otherwise the connection will not be secure nor transfer the signal. NEEDS HEAT!! Did I say that yet?
