Activators for Industrial/Structural
Adhesive Bonding Applications |
|
Adhesive activators are used to increase cure speed and improve adhesion of industrial
adhesive bonding applications. Adhesive activators are designed to enable curing of 600 series and 800 series acrylate adhesives in areas not able to see light or heat. Dymax 600 series or 800 series metal bonding adhesives develop bond strengths up to 3,500 psi in 10 to 30 seconds between opaque surfaces when an adhesive activator is pre-applied to metal substrates. Many products also bond well to various engineering plastics and glass surfaces as well.
- Increase strength of bonded substrates
- Improve adhesion
- Fixture in seconds
Structural adhesives form durable bonds with an adhesive activator between
close-fitting parts for fast metal joining, ferrite bonding, magnet bonding, and
motor assembly. Applications include tacking, bonding speaker cones, magnet bonding, motor assembly, furniture assembly, appliance manufacturing, plastic assembly, and general bonding to metal and ceramics.

| 501-E |
Used with Dymax 600 and 800 series structural bonding adhesives and 9- series thermal interface adhesive for increasing bond strength to metal, plated metal, ceramic, and glass substrates |
Strong structural bonds; fixtures in 10-20 seconds; no solvent flash-off time |
|
| 535-A |
Used with Dymax 600 and 800 series structural bonding adhesives for fast structural bonding; high strength bonds form to metal, painted/coated metal, plated and surface treated metal, ferrite, ceramic, glass, wood, and thermoset plastic substrates |
ODC-free; strong structural bonds; excellent degreasing and wetting properties; allows cure speed to match assembly speed; variety of application techniques; elimination of heat curing and other delays in curing;
on-part cleaning action; broad tolerance of adhesive-to-activator ratios; rapid, on-demand curing to fixture or handling strength allows in-line quality control and increased production thru-put |
