Key characteristics that make DYMAX glass bonders suitable for most applications include, invisible bonds, high clarity and adhesion, toughness, durability and resistance to moisture and thermal cycling. Though most applications require the joining of mating surfaces, DYMAX glass bonders form acceptable coatings and seals for most glass, plastic and metal substrates-The result is superior finished quality products.
Besides delivering the highest levels of strength, durability and appearance, DYMAX adhesives are formulated to cure in only a few seconds upon exposure to moderate intensity 365 nanometer wavelength UV light. Fast cures provide optimized productivity in automated and hand assembly processes. Additionally, DYMAX glass bonders do not cure until exposed to light to allow for precise positioning prior to bonding. Even under intensities as low as 10 mW/cm2 many of these adhesives are capable of full cures in as little as 30 seconds. They may even be cured using "black light".
Viscosities from moderate to non-flowing gels are available for easy dispensing. The products are 100% solvent-free, worker friendly and do not bond skin.
