Light-curing cyanoacrylates: innovative adhesive technology for high speed manufacturing

摘要

Light-curing cyanoacrylate adhesives offer processing and performance benefits for high speed assembly processes. These one-part, solvent-free systems offer rapid cure of exposed and confined adhesive on bond joints without requiring the use of heat or racking of parts. Their processing characteristics allow manufacturers the rapid cure speed benefits of light curing acrylic adhesives with the ease of use and reliability of the cyanoacrylate secondary cure mechanism. Since they are based on cyanoacrylate chemistry, these adhesives offer the high-bond strength to a wide variety of substrates that can be expected from a cyanoacrylate. This combination of high performance with guaranteed complete cure offers manufacturers the ability to improve the robustness, output and performance of their bonding operations.
