Structural Acrylic Adhesive Systems
Hernon offers a complete line of structural acrylic
adhesives. These systems are two-part, no mix, reactive adhesives.
Each acrylic adhesive has two ponents: the adhesive base or resin,
and the Activator.
Structural acrylic adhesives are termed "reactive"
cure systems. The adhesive base reacts upon contact with the
Activator layer to initiate the
curing mechanism. The key word is layer - Activator
is applied as a thin film or layer to one or both surfaces to
be bonded. Adhesive base resin is applied to one surface and
parts mated to start the cure reaction. Unlike epoxies acrylics
require no direct mixing.
Acrylics offer unique performance capabiliites.
High peel and high impact stengths are combined to dilver tough,
durable, shock resistant bonds. Acrylics withstand weathering
effects well.
Acrylic adhesives do not require extensive surface
preparation and bond well to dirty and oily surfaces.
Other acrylic feature include the ability to bond
to a wide range of materials, excellent gap fills and fast fixturing
times.
Hernon offers two families of acrylic adhesives:
the ReAct bonding systems, and the Dissipator
thermally conductive acrylics.
