How to cure acrylic adhesives? Surface activated acrylic adhesive<\/a>s are also called structural acrylics<\/a>, surface initiated acrylics, two part no-mix acrylics, aerobic acrylics, and cold-bonding acrylics.\u00a0 It would be lovely if we could all use the same language \u2013 but that\u2019s the way it is \u2013 so now that we know what type of product we are discussing \u2013 we\u2019ll move on.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Surface activated acrylic adhesives are two component materials consisting of an acrylic resin component and an initiator.\u00a0 Generally the initiator is a water thin material that is wiped or sprayed onto one substrate and the adhesive is applied in a bead or pattern of beads onto the other.\u00a0 Upon assembly, the resin and initiator mix sufficiently to cause acrylic curing.\u00a0 This process provides very fast strength development of the bond. The fixture can be achieved in under a minute, minimizing clamp time or work in progress time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The factors affecting surface activated acrylic curing include temperature, ratio of initiator to adhesive and gap.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Apply a THIN layer of initiator to one surface by either a fine mist spray or wiping.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
