Usage
Paracol D3 white wood glue by DL Chemicals is designed for bonding wooden constructions such as window frames, exterior doors, and tenon or dowel joints. Suitable for interior and semi-exposed joinery.
Advantages
- High water resistance (D3 classification according to DIN 68602), ideal for humid environments
- Exceptional adhesion strength on most common and exotic wood types
- Transparent when cured for a clean, nearly invisible bond line
- Ready-to-use one-component formula based on polyvinyl acetate dispersion
- Awarded French VOC emission class A+; low environmental impact; minor drawback: not suitable for constant submersion in water
Specifications
- The glue consists of a polyvinyl acetate dispersion; starts white and dries transparent after curing.
- D3 durability conforming to DIN EN204/DIN 68602, suitable for indoor use with occasional short-term exposure to moisture.
- Tensile strength after full cure: up to 15 N/mm² (DIN standard); pressing time: typically between10–20 minutes depending on materials and conditions.
- Shelf life of up to12 months in original packaging; temperature resistant from –20°C to +70°C. Solid content approximately52% by weight; density1.09 g/cm³ at20°C.
How it works
The adhesive is applied directly onto clean, dry wood surfaces. After joining the parts, maintain pressure (clamping or pressing) for10–20 minutes. The glue sets quickly at room temperature and achieves maximum bond strength after full curing. Excess adhesive can be cleaned with water before drying.
