UV-Curable Adhesives
Permabond UV-curable adhesives are single part, cure on demand adhesives suitable for bonding a wide variety of substrates. Upon
exposure to UV light, Permabond UV curables will cure to a high strength in a matter of seconds.
Permabond UV curable adhesives are suitable for a variety of applications.
They are excellent for bonding glass to glass or glass to metal and form very high
strength bonds for load bearing joints, such as those found in glass furniture and
display cases.
Permabond UV curable adhesives form strong and durable bonds.
Permabond UV curable adhesives cure during exposure to ultra violet light. The
adhesives contain
photo-initiators that react to specific wavelengths of light to cure the adhesive.
Flexible and stress absorbing, Permabond UV curable adhesives are suited to
applications where substrates with different thermal expansions need to be bonded.
UV adhesives do not dissolve, melt or weaken the two components. They form
strong chemical bonds between the two substrates and provide a high strength
alternative to other joining methods.
Permabond UV curable adhesives bond a wide variety of plastics. Some clear plastics
contain UV stabilizers that block the transmission of UV light, however, Permabond
has formulated plastic bonding adhesives with UV and visible light curing capabilities
to allow these plastics to be bonded. Permabond’s technical staff can help you
identify the UV transission characteristics of the plastic you are using and assist you
with selecting the best product for your application.
Curing lamps are available in a variety of intensities from small inexpensive hobby
type lamps to high intensity units for high speed production. Permabond will help
you select the equipment best suited to your specific application.
