Glues and industrial adhesives: essential selection criteria
In the choice of a industrial adhesive, the first step is to check the Compatibility with materials to assemble.
This guarantees not only effective grip but also optimal sustainability of assembly.
It is crucial to take into account the environmental conditions in which the adhesive will be applied and will have to operate.
Factors such as room temperature, L'humidity, L'UV ray exposure and Aggressive chemicals (for example, detergents or acids), as well as the presence of dust, can significantly influence the performance of glue.
In addition, it is necessary to ensure that the adhesive can resist Mechanical requests expected on the assembled elements, such as permanent charges, THE vibes, THE shock, and the shear or flexion forces.
Another aspect to consider is the Reversibility of the assembly : if you plan the need to later separate the attachments, it is important to select an adhesive for which a appropriate solvent is available to facilitate this operation.
Management of working time - the period during which it is possible to adjust the position of the glued elements - and final plug, that is to say the time required for the adhesive to ensure complete collage under normal conditions, are decisive choice criteria.
THE Bicomposing adhesives tend to offer working times and reduced final intake compared to Monocomposing adhesives, except Cyanoacrylate glues, known for their fast -taking time.
Finally, it is essential to verify that the chosen adhesive is in accordance with the standards in force Applicable to the type of assembly to be made, in order to guarantee both the security and legality of the application.
These guidelines will help guide the selection of the adhesive product most suited to your specific needs, by ensuring effective and sustainable membership.
