Adhesive Systems News by Instantca (http://www.instantca.com). http://www.instantca.com Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Adhesive vinyl is a high performance, two-part methacrylate adhesive engineered to bond a wide range of vinyl and composite assemblies. It offers outstanding bond strength, is extremely durable, as well as has excellent weathering properties. Our adhesive vinyl greatly increases the reliability of finished assemblies with exceptional flexibility. It has the ability to withstand extreme temperature fluctuation and thermal cycling; and is resistant to a wide range of chemicals and environmental conditions. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/AdhesiveVinyl.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Epoxy Glue Is Great for Many Assembly Applications Adhesive Systems offers epoxy glue that comes in a complete line of one and two part epoxies for structural bonding, potting, and encapsulating applications needing an epoxy adhesive. Epoxy resin glue is in a class of adhesives called 'structural adhesives'; and is used in automotive, construction, electrical, transportation, industrial and marine market applications throughout America. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/EpoxyGlue.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 An epoxy is a thermosetting polymer that is formed from reaction of an epoxy resin and an epoxy hardener. Adhesive Systems offers a complete line of one and two part epoxies for structural bonding, potting, and encapsulating applications needing an epoxy adhesive. Our epoxy glue products make assembly processes more efficient while enhancing the quality of the products. Fast curing, strong epoxy resin properties enable our products to provide consistent maximum performance, durability and reliability. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/EpoxyResin.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Adhesive Systems Inc. is a leader in the design, formulation and manufacture of medical adhesive products for the assembly of both disposable and reusable medical devices. These user-friendly adhesives can be cured at ambient and/or elevated temperatures or by exposure to UV light, so they are known as UV curable adhesives. These medical-grade adhesives are usable in a wide variety of devices such as diagnostic instruments (i.e. endoscopes), surgical tools, catheters and implantables, or for repairs on general equipment. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/MedicalAdhesive.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Adhesive Systems’ plastic adhesive is an epoxy consisting of thermosetting polymers formed from the reaction of a resin and a hardener. Our plastic bonding adhesive can be used for a wide range of applications from general purpose adhesive uses to bonding fiber reinforced plastics and other composite materials, including construction of vehicles, sports equipment, boats, aviation and more. Epoxy adhesives are in a class of adhesives called 'structural adhesives'. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/PlasticAdhesive.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Adhesive Systems’ Quick-Tac Accelerator™ spray adhesive was developed as a treating agent for use with our instant adhesive products. It has been specifically engineered to shorten fixture times, cure speeds and increase the gap filling capabilities of our instant adhesive products. Our Quick-Tac™ will assist the curing process and give exceptionally faster set times when faster setting speeds are required. When curing beads or in applications where the adhesive is not between two parts, it will allow for fast uniform curing. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/SprayAdhesive.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Known in the trade as, and sold under the name of “super glue,” our super glue cyanoacrylate adhesive is Adhesive Systems’ product solution for a strong, fast-acting adhesive. Our instant adhesives are liquid acrylate monomers that quickly polymerize, meaning they set within seconds and cure at room temperature; and they bond to a variety of surfaces. Our super glue uses include a wide range of high performance applications for industries and products, such as: aerospace, air filters, antennas, appliances, automotive, chain saws, catheters, cosmetic cases, displays, electronics, exercise equipment, hearing aids, instruments, light fixtures, loudspeakers, medical devices, motors, munitions, plastic molding, rubber gaskets, shoes, signs, snow blowers, soap dispensers, switches, televisions, toys, transformers and weatherstripping. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/SuperGlue.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Adhesive bonding in the aircraft and automotive industry are rapidly replacing many conventional methods of joining two parts together. Bonding adhesives is a process where a monomer compound is applied in between joints and is allowed chemically to transform into complex long chained polymers that interlock the mating parts by inter-atomic bonding and diffusion of the adhesive into the adherents. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/AdhesiveBonding.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Metal bonding is a process in which structural adhesives are primarily used to bond thin material lap joints, replacing rivets or spot welds that are used commonly in these assembly applications. Metal bonding glue eliminate gaps, bulges, and protruding fasteners on exterior surfaces, thereby reducing drag forces on motorized applications, such as automobiles, trucks, aircraft, motorboats, motorcycles and trains. It evenly distributes stress loads over a broad bonding line rather than a concentrated area, thereby reducing stress on joints. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/MetalBonding.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530 Our rubber adhesive is a contact adhesive that offers the highest adhesion and shear properties in comparison to acrylic or silicone adhesives. Rubber glues are best used in ambient, indoor applications, as rubber adhesives are susceptible to UV light and elevated temperatures. Rubber-based adhesives are very adaptive as they will work with a wide variety of substrates and satisfy most adhesion requirements. http://www.instantca.com/Resource/RubberAdhesive.aspx Mon, 31 Jan 2011 20:25:32 +0530
