Overlap shear (OLS) strengths were measured on1 in. wide 1/2 in. overlap specimens. These bonds were made individually using 1 in. x 4 in. pieces of substrate. The thickness of the bond line was 0.005-0.008 in. All strengths were measured at 70°F (21°C) except where noted. (Test per ASTM D 1002-72.)
The separation rate of the testing jaws was 0.1in. per minute for metals, 2 in. per minute for plastics and 20 in. per minute for rubbers. The thickness of the substrates were: steel, 0.060 in.; other metals, 0.05-0.064 in.; rubber, 0.125 in.; plastics, 0.125 in.

The substrates were 0.020in.thick.(TestsperASTMD 1876-61T.)
14 Solvent resistance was determined using cured (24hrs. RT + 2 hrs. 160°F [71°C]) samples (1/2 in. x 4 in. x 1/8 in. thickness) immersed in the test solvent for 1 hour and 1 month. After the allotted period of time, the sample was removed and visually examined for surface attack as compared to the control.
Key: A - Unaffected - no change to color or surface texture.
B - Slight attack - noticeable swelling of surface.
C - Moderate/severe attack - extreme swelling of surface.

Known backups / known substitutes
- 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive DP100 Clear (non-Plus version)- 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive DP105 (different properties, longer work life)- 3M Scotch-Weld Epoxy Adhesive DP190 (longer work life, higher viscosity)- UltraLok 5405 (Chemical Concepts Inc. alternative to 3M DP100)- TotalBoat FlexEpox (flexible epoxy adhesive)- Other fast-setting, flexible epoxy adhesives from various manufacturers (e.g., Sylmasta Rapid 5 Minute Epoxy Adhesive)
Comparison Note
3M Scotch-Weld DP100 Plus Clear offers improved performance over standard 5-minute epoxies, particularly in terms of flexibility, peel strength, and impact resistance. Its flexible nature distinguishes it from more rigid traditional epoxies, making it suitable for bonding dissimilar surfaces and applications subject to movement, vibration, or thermal cycling. While many epoxies cure to a rigid state, DP100 Plus maintains a degree of flexibility, which helps absorb stresses without cracking or delaminating.
