Adchem's Offers Test Protocol for SDL Muntin Tapes
Adchem Corporation, a leading manufacturer of high performance film and foam bonding adhesive tapes, offers qualified window manufacturers its complete test protocol for the design and selection of muntin tapes. The document includes guidance for selecting proper clearances for wood, vinyl and aluminum grids, as well as, cleaning and assembly methods.
Adchem's MT series for Simulated Divided Light (SDL) windows and doors was developed specifically as a muntin tape system eliminating the need for liquid silane primers or enhancers. The MT series is engineered to provide long term indoor and outdoor adhesion to a variety of substrates including glass, cellular PVC, vinyl, primed and unprimed wood, plastic, painted aluminum and Kynar coated aluminum.
Establishing a new standard for muntin bar adhesives, Adchem's MT series maintains high shear, tensile, and cleavage strength while providing resistance to air, water, detergents, moisture, UV light and dust. The product is available in light gray, charcoal and black.
