Previous acrylates from the company won plaudits particularly for their speed. They fully cure within seconds, enabling fast production processes and a high yield rate. In addition, the adhesives have a universal adhesion, are highly flexible, and balance tension. Their temperature limit is 120°C.
Things are different with the new sealants. In addition to the existing benefits, they have taken a considerable leap in temperature, and retain their flexibility even at temperatures of up to 150°C. This can be clearly seen with a constant Young’s modulus, as even after 1,000 hours of temperature storage at 150°C it remains low.
In addition, the acrylates have excellent sealing properties, as is demonstrated during a thermal shock test from -40°C through 150°C. The products exhibit full leak-tightness here, even after 300 cycles. These are important criteria, particularly for bondings in the automotive field.
