Bostik has announced an exclusive agreement with SpecialChem to offer an online resource on the use and the benefits of Silyl modified polymer (SMP) adhesives on Omnexus4adhesives.

The two companies have jointly developed a unique SMP adhesives technical centre to foster new ideas and provide development engineers solutions around application development projects.

The technical centre covers the broad application fields of SMP adhesives and specifically transportation, marine and building and construction applications where their unique set of properties makes SMP adhesives the leading technology.

"We are pleased to partner with SpecialChem to promote the value and benefits of Silyl modified polymer (SMP) adhesives and help customers to make the best material choice when using adhesives for construction and transportation applications", said Arnold van den Berg, Product Manager, Bostik.

"SpecialChem is proud to have Bostik, with its SMP adhesives specialty materials as one of the first partners of its brand new Omnexus4Adhesives platform, which is dedicated to formulated adhesives performances and technologies".

"They perfectly match our mission of providing development engineers with a unique source of innovation and solutions", said Bernard Hasson, SpecialChem CEO and founder.

"We are very excited to offer online a new source of information to help nonadhesives specialists in the selection of the best technology to bond and fasten efficiently their material parts".

Applicators, end-users and OEMs will find all the information they need to select and apply easily SMP adhesives in their specific application.

Many case studies from the transportation and construction industries are also displayed to identify specific areas where SMP adhesives are clearly the best green solutions for bonding easily large metallic structures.
