Product catalog summary
Product Description
Hernon ReAct 727 is a tough acrylic adhesive primarily used for securing ceramic permanent magnet segments in motor magnet bonding applications. It is also suitable for various structural bonding applications due to its versatile performance capabilities. The adhesive provides high tensile strength and excellent flexibility, resulting in durable bonds with outstanding impact and peel resistance. It cures at room temperature when used with Hernon EF Activator 56.
Product Benefits
  • High impact and shock resistance
  • Good gap filling properties
  • Excellent adhesion to various surfaces
  • Consistent cure rate from 60 to 100°F (16 to 38°C)
  • Fast fixturing with no pot life or mixing required
  • Low toxicity and odor
  • Thixotropic properties for easy application
  • Cost-effective with minimal clamping time and tooling
Typical Applications
  • DC motor assembly
  • Magnet bonding
  • Bonding pre-coated sheet metal
  • Bonding ferrites, plastic, and metal wear strips
  • Bonding metals with special surface treatments
Typical Properties (Uncured)
  • Base Resin: Modified Acrylic
  • Appearance: Off-White, Translucent
  • Specific Gravity @ 25°C: 1.08
  • Viscosity @ 25°C: 56,000 – 64,000 cP
Curing Performance
ReAct 727 is designed to be used with EF Activator 56 and cures at room temperature. Fixture time varies based on gap size, ranging from 25 seconds to 25 minutes. Heat can accelerate curing when surface priming is undesirable.
Typical Cured Performance
Shear strength is tested on lap-shear specimens with one side primed with EF Activator 56. Results vary based on substrate and cure time, with strengths ranging from 1,500 psi to 2,500 psi.
Environmental Resistance
ReAct 727 demonstrates good heat aging and humidity resistance, maintaining significant shear strength under various conditions.
Chemical/Solvent Resistance
The adhesive maintains high shear strength after exposure to air and motor oil at 87°C for 720 hours.
General Information
Not recommended for use in pure oxygen or chlorine systems. For safe handling, consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Directions for Use
  1. Ensure bond surfaces are clean and grease-free.
  2. Apply EF Activator 56 to one surface and adhesive to the other. Assemble parts within 15 minutes.
  3. For larger gaps or faster cure, apply activator to both surfaces and assemble immediately.
  4. Wipe excess adhesive with organic solvent.
  5. Clamp until adhesive is fixtured.
  6. Allow full strength development before applying service loads.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry location between 45ºF to 85ºF (7ºC to 29ºC). Avoid contamination by not returning unused material to the original container.
Dispensing Equipment
Hernon offers semi and fully automated dispensing equipment. Contact Hernon Sales for more information.

High Performance Adhesives and Sealants 121 Tech Drive Sanford, FL 32771 (407) 322-4000 Fax: (407) 321-9700 www.hernon.com Technical Data Sheet April 2019 ReAct® 72 7 Product Description Typical Applications Hernon® ReAct® 727 is a tough acrylic adhesive designed primarily for securing of ceramic permanent magnet segments in motor magnet bonding applications. This adhesive has also found wide acceptance in a variety of structural bonding applications due to its versatile performance capabilities. ReAct® 727 has demonstrated the ability to provide high tensile strength while maintaining excellent product flexibility. This results in tough, durable bonds with outstanding impact and peel resistance. This tough acrylic is a room temperature curing adhesive which is used in conjunction with Hernon® EF® Activator 56. Product Benefits Improved Reliability • High impact and shock resistance • Good gap filling properties. • Excellent adhesion to a variety of surfaces. • Consistent rate of cure from 60 to 100°F (16 to 38°C) • Consistent bond strength Improved Processing • Fast fixturing • No pot life, no mixing • No waste problems • Low toxicity • Low odor • Thixotropic: facilitates dispensing/applying • Non-migrating on vertical surfaces • Increases productivity • Requires minimal parts cleaning • Easy clean-up Cost Effective • Requires minimal clamping time and tooling. • Eliminates high energy cost needed for heat cured materials. • Eliminates need for mechanical clips • DC motor assembly. • Magnet bonding. • Bonding pre-coated sheet metal. • Bonding ferrites, plastic, and metal wear strips. • Bonding metals with special surface treatments such as galvanized, phosphate, and dichromate surfaces. Typical Properties (Uncured) Typical Curing Performance ReAct® 727 is designed to be used with EF® Activator 56 and cured at room temperature. Cure characteristics are measured by determining fixture time (handling time) and speed of cure. Fixture Time Fixture time is defined as the time to develop a shear strength of 0.1 N/mm2. Tested on grit-blasted steel lap-shear specimens, one side primed with EF® Activator 56 for gap. Cure Speed The graph below shows shear strength developed with time using EF® Activator 56 on steel lap-shear specimens a
