New White Paper! |
LED Curing of Light-Curable Materials
Unraveling the Myths and Realities
As a relative newcomer to the adhesive industry, LED curing lights continue to evolve with the goal of replacing mercury arc curing lamps, the industry standard for more than twenty-five years. The evolution of LED curing lights is driven by promises of lower operating costs and "green" attributes. Experts predict LED curing lights will evolve over time to dominate the light-curable adhesive field. A new white paper from DYMAX "LED Curing of Light-Curable Materials – Unraveling the Myths and Realities" reviews common misconceptions and realities about LED technology. Topics in the paper include:
- Replacement of arc lamps with LED light sources
- Selecting LED spot-lamp systems and light-curable chemistries
- Bond performance achieved with LED versus a conventional lamp source
- Optimal LED light source spectrums for light-curable chemistries
- LED power ratings
- Using LED with heat-sensitive substrates
- LED cure-unit design: wand-mounted LED versus light-guided LED

| NEW! DYMAX Light-Curable Maskant Offers Surface Protection During Harsh Environment Processing
|
| SpeedMask® 730-BT is a masking resin formulated to provide excellent surface protection during chemical milling/etching, plating, anodizing, and aggressive grit-blasting operations aiding in the manufacturing, overhaul, repair, and rework of turbine engine blades, vanes, and other turbine components as well as many other metal finishing applications. 730-BT is impervious to most acid and alkali solutions. This next-generation maskant is trimmable for complex configurations while still maintaining edge tension to prevent leakage and damage to the substrate underneath. Learn more... |
