How much is “enough” when it comes to adhesive?
More adhesive isn’t necessarily better when you want an effective bond or seal. Covering the bond surface is the main requirement. The type of adhesive and the bonding environment have a lot to do with how much is “enough” and how much less or extra will cause adhesive failure. Adhesive failure is a common issue […]
Efficient scale up – Adhesive processes
One of the questions our tech team asks engineers seeking an adhesive recommendation is “How many assemblies will you be manufacturing?” Although, from a business perspective, this is nice information to have. It is critical information to make an ideal product and process recommendation. Often, the right viscosity, rheology, and set time of a process […]
Plastic Adhesive: Best Adhesives for Bonding Plastic
What is the best adhesive for plastic? Often the strongest glue for plastic may not be the best adhesive for plastic. There are a variety of factors to consider when choosing the best plastic glue. Obviously, bond strength is at the top. For most plastic bonding applications cyanoacrylate adhesives, UV curable adhesives, MMAs, as well […]
PPE-How to protect your skin when working with adhesives
