UV Curing Plastic Bonding Adhesives

UV light curing plastic bonding adhesives cure in seconds upon exposure to ultraviolet light and/or visible light, even through UV blocked plastics. A solvent-free, worker-friendly plastic adhesive from DYMAX, forms high-strength, environmentally resistant bonds to plastics and other substrates, including polycarbonate, PVC, phenolic, acrylic, metal, glass and ceramic. Because plastic adhesives bond so many different substrates, they are exceptional adhesives for bonding dissimilar materials, something that cannot be done with traditional welding methods and other types of adhesives. Typical UV plastic adhesive applications include display case construction, automotive headlamp assembly, novelty bonding, sign assembly, adhering light fixtures and awards and plastic package assembly.

Plastic Adhesive Plastic Bonding Applications Plastic Bonding Adhesive Features
3013 Bonding transparent or translucent acrylic, metal, polycarbonate, PVC alloys, ABS, polyurethane and polystyrene Resilient; general purpose; low viscosity; moisture resistant; flexible; dispenses easily and cures quickly for precise quantity and placement of adhesive; built-in fluorescence provides a method to insure in-line quality control utilizing optical scanners
3015 Flexible plastic assembly; rapid bonding and sealing to stainless steel, polycarbonate, PVC Excellent moisture resistance and dispensing rheology for the most demanding applications; bonds to polycarbonate generally exceed the strength of the substrate; fluorescing for visual or automated inspection
3016 Coating components; excellent adhesion to metal, nickel, glass, FR-4, polyimide, PVC and other plastics Clear, tough, rigid cationic epoxy coating; cures upon exposure to low intensity UV light; good for applications requiring chemical and high temperature resistance or exceptionally tack-free surfaces; full cure and optimum bond strength may continue to improve for 24 hours after exposure to UV light
3017 Bonding to polysulfone, polycarbonate, PVC, PET, PETG, polyurethane, SAN and acrylic Flexible plastic bonder; fluorescent for visual or automated inspection; solvent-free; 100% solids; extremely fast curing
3019 Flexible and rigid plastic bonding; adheres to PVC, polyurethane, PET, polystyrene, nylon Moisture resistant, clear bond lines; fluorescing for in-line inspection under low intensity "black" light; 100% solids; fast curing
3020 Rapid polycarbonate bonding; bonds to PVC, polyimide and a variety of plastic substrates Low outgassing; tough; high strength; designed to form durable, water resistant bonds to polycarbonate
3021 High strength UV epoxy; bonds glass, various plastics and most metals Low shrinkage (<0.2%); resists yellowing; maintains dimensions with minimal degradation of strength when thermally cycled; cures fully in seconds upon UV/visible light exposure, but heating the cured product to 150oC for 1 hour will increase the Tg to 100oC and may further improve bond strength
3025 Bonding polycarbonate; flexibie and rigid PVC; ABS; acrylic; stainless steel Moisture resistant; solvent-free; rapid cures; low viscosity
3069 Electrical bonding; potting; wire harness assembly; bonds to polycarbonate, PVC, polyurethane, PET Low stress; clear; environmentally resistant; adheres to most surfaces; good for flexible and rigid substrates
3070 Bonding rigid fittings to flexible tubing; adheres to PVC, SAN, PBT, polycarbonate, styrene mylar High water and moisture resistance at elevated temperatures; NVP-free; flexibility provides shock absorbing capabilities in the bond area
3072 Electrical potting and sealing; bonds to PBT, Valox®, metal, glass, PVC, SAN, PS and K-Resin® UV and/or visible light curing; dispenses easily to allow for precise quantity and placement of adhesive; bonds generally exceed the strength of substrates bonded, including PVC alloys, which resist most other bonding methods
3081-LV Sealing PVC clamshell packages Strong bonds to thermoformed PVC; Viscosity = 380 cP
3081 Sealing PVC clamshell packages Strong bonds to thermoformed PVC; Viscosity = 500 cP
3081-T Sealing PVC clamshell packages Strong bonds to thermoformed PVC; Viscosity = 6,000 cP
3083 Sealing PET & R-PET clamshell packages Strong bonds to thermoformed PET and R-PET; Viscosity = 550 cP
3083-T Sealing PET, A-PET & RPET clamshell packages Strong bonds to thermoformed PET, A-PET & RPET. Viscosity = 3,500 cP
3086 Packaging; bonds to SAN, ABS, CAP, MBS, acrylic, glass, ceramic and metal Very fast; structural strength adhesive; hard, rigid bonds; UL94 flame class rating of 94V-0
3089 Laminating and bonding; adheres to PET, glass PETG, Mylar®, K-Resin®, PP and brass Low stress; very fast curing; flexible UV adhesive; resilient bonds exhibiting high flexibility to minimize or eliminate bond line stresses
3094 Bonding display cases, shelves; laminating plastic sheets; packaging; bonds to acrylic, ABS, styrene, polycarbonate, polyurethane UV light and/or visible light curing; dispenses easily and cures quickly for precise quantity and placement of adhesive; bonds generally exceed the strength of substrates bonded, including PVC alloys, which resist most other bonding methods
3099 Bonding clear and translucent acrylic, polycarbonate, PVC alloys, and polyurethane Resilient adhesive with excellent adhesion to acrylic. Clear, low viscosity UV cured adhesive produces clear, bubble-free bondlines
