Adhesive for display purposes where clean transparent bonds are needed on acrylic, glass and polycarbonate, for screens or structural elements, is quick curing and looks better than solvent systems.
Dymax 3099 adhesive from Intertronics is for high quality display purposes where clean transparent bonds are needed on acrylic, glass and polycarbonate, either for screens or structural elements.
It is quick curing and looks better than solvent based systems for high profile display applications such as cosmetics, or exhibitions of artifacts and technology items.
It has high tensile strength, 95% elongation at break and resistance to moisture and thermal cycling.
Curing takes a few seconds on exposure to moderate intensity 365nm wavelength ultraviolet light, to provide optimised productivity in automated and hand assembly processes.
It is capable of full cure in 30s at intensities down to 10mW/cm2.
However, curing does not take place until exposed to light, permitting precise positioning before bonding.
A viscosity of 0.15Pa.s makes it suitable for applications where the adhesive has to flow into tight bond areas, while higher viscosities are also available.
It is 100% solvent-free.
Though many applications require the joining of mating surfaces, Dymax 3099 forms acceptable bonds where irregular surfaces result in a less than perfect fit.
It can cure through a thickness of 6mm in seconds, to create stronger bonds and better seals.
This makes it suitable for automotive glass and plastic assembly, bonding trophies, acrylic furniture and point of sale parts, display cases, stemware, figurines, art and novelties, and architectural applications.
Characteristics include invisible bonds, high adhesion, toughness and durability.
