Permabond 130UV & 135UV are a unique class of adhesives that offer the benefit of both a cyanoacrylate (moisture) and UV cure. Since their launch last year, both products have received significant interest and have been subjected to extensive testing from our customers. They cure in seconds when exposed to UV light and also by reacting with the moisture present in the air and on most surfaces, effectively offering the best of both curing technologies.<\/p>\n

The benefits of a dual-cure cyanoacrylate\/UV adhesive<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Traditional UV adhesives rely solely on UV light to cure, which can lead to uncured \u2018shadow areas\u2019 where the UV light cannot reach, or bonding issues with opaque (non-transparent) materials. Permabond 130UV & 135UV overcome these with a dual-curing system – utilising both a UV light and moisture cure. This ensures complete curing, even in shadow areas or when bonding opaque substrates.<\/p>\n

Unlike standard UV adhesives which struggle to bond rubber, 130UV & 135UV\u2019s cyanoacrylate chemistry enables strong adhesion to rubber surfaces. They cure tack-free, providing a clean, smooth finish.<\/p>\n

Standalone cyanoacrylates often produce a white residue or \u201cbloom\u201d after curing due to a chemical reaction with moisture present in the air. Permabond 130UV & 135UV avoid this by instantly curing with UV light, preventing bloom and delivering a clean, residue-free finish.<\/p>\n

Blades for eye surgery \u2013 a real-life Permabond 130UV case study<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We were recently contacted by a customer looking for an adhesive that could bond multiple substrates for consumable eye surgery blades. There were several applications the customer wanted to cover using one adhesive. Due to the delicate and small nature of some of the parts being bonded, the customer wanted a UV adhesive for a controlled and rapid cure that could easily be automated into a syringe-based dispensing system. Additional requirements were a shore hardness of >70D, with biocompatibility not essential but good to have.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We subsequently recommended Permabond 130UV for this application for several reasons. It matches the customer\u2019s shore hardness requirements perfectly, offers biocompatibility and cures in shadow areas that may not be reached by the customer\u2019s UV-curing system. Not only that, it cures very quickly, is easily automated into a dispensing system and bonds well to a wide variety of substrates. Overall, 130UV was the right adhesive for the job and the customer was very happy with this choice.<\/p>\n
