Dead time after mixing reactants

The process engineer would like materials that have unlimited shelf life (warehouse storage before use), pot life (working time after the reactive components are mixed), and process working time in general (resistance to premature crosslinking between cycles, in dead spots, and during down time). In fact, ideally, one would like a one-part system, which means that a mixture of all the reactants would be stable indefinitely. All these requirements spell low reactivity.
