What adhesive types are best for bonding composites?

Cyanoacrylates, Epoxy Adhesives, Polyurethane Adhesives, Structural Acrylic Adhesives, and UV Cure Adhesives all bond well to composites. So which adhesive type is the best? It depends upon the type of composite and the desired assembly process, and the requirements of the bond. The following reviews a few of the various adhesive types. EPOXY ADHESIVES Epoxy […]
Glass Bonding Adhesive | Industrial adhesives | UV curable adhesives

Which glass bonding adhesive technology is the right choice? A variety of industrial adhesive solutions are available for bonding glass, including UV curable adhesives, hybrid adhesives, epoxy adhesives, and acrylic structural adhesive. Acrylic Structural Adhesives Acrylic structural adhesives are commonly used to bond glass to metal in areas that light cannot reach. Examples include bonding […]
Thermally Conductive Adhesives

There is a wide range of uses for thermally conductive adhesives within the electronics industry. The main applications include bonding SMDs (Surface Mount Devices) to PCBs (Printed Circuit Boards), bonding heatsinks for dissipating heat from circuit boards or other components, potting and encapsulating parts (including PCBs, transformers and coils). There are also applications for electric motors, […]
Using the right adhesive for the right situation …

Why are there so many kinds of adhesive? Bonding two components might be possible with nothing but a dab of epoxy, but a less expensive, more effective, or faster curing solution might occur with a cyanoacrylate (instant adhesive) or one of the many other adhesive chemistries available in the marketplace. Choosing the right adhesive the […]
