Reactive Adhesives


Reactive adhesives (also called chemically hardening or curable adhesives) require a chemical reaction for bonding two surfaces. These adhesives are classified into one- and two-component reactive adhesives (e.g., heat or light-cured) and have been used in applications where substrates require substantial permanency and high strength adherence such as high-tech devices.

Polymers and Additives for Pressure Sensitive Adhesives

By Edward M. Petrie

Pressure sensitive adhesives, when in the dry state, are aggressively tacky at room temperature and possess a high degree of "quick stick" or initial grab. They can adhere to a variety of dissimilar materials without the need for much more than slight pressure. Often the pressure is applied by hand, but rollers, presses, and other mechanical devices can also be used. There’s always a scope for tailored performance for a particular high-end application. But, how to select the right additive for your requirement? Learn here, the additives and polymers that are used in pressure sensitive adhesives and how overall performance properties...
