Light-curable adhesive has built-in cure indicator

By R&D Editors | January 26, 2011

Dymax_AdhesiveDYMAX
Corporation has released a new adhesive featuring a built-in cure
indicator for appliance assembly and other industrial plastic-bonding
applications. 3225-T-SC is a versatile, plastic-bonding adhesive
formulated with DYMAX’s patented See-Cure technology. This material is
designed for rapid bonding, laminating, and sealing of most plastics
such as PMMA (acrylic), PC, PVC, ABS, PA, PU, SAN, TPU, and aluminum. It can also be considered for bonding glass, stainless steel, and brass
substrates in combination with plastic substrates. 3225-T-SC is
formulated to cure with DYMAX broad-spectrum curing equipment such as
the BlueWave 200 Spot Lamps, 5000-EC Flood Lamp(s)/UVCS Conveyor
Systems, and the narrow-spectrum BlueWave LED Prime UVA Spot Lamp.

3225-T-SC
is colored bright blue in the uncured state. The adhesive’s high
visibility enables automated vision systems to confirm adhesive
placement prior to the cure. During the curing process, the blue color
of the adhesive transitions to clear, and provides an obvious, visual
confirmation that a full cure has been achieved. 3225-T-SC is designed
to cure tack free and clear in appearance after exposure to DYMAX
broad-spectrum curing equipment in <4 seconds at 200 mW/cm2 at 385 nm and in <3 seconds with the DYMAX BlueWave LED Prime UVA system.
