UV & LED curing adhesive bonds glass/glass and glass/metal

Dymax Ultra Light-Weld 431 from Intertronics is a versatile glass-to-glass and glass-to-metal bonding adhesive that is formulated to be resistant to high-temperature and high-moisture environments while maintaining superior adhesion and flexibility.

UV & LED curing adhesive bonds glass/glass and glass/metal

Dymax 431 bonds rapidly upon exposure to UV/Visible light for immediate use in the assembly process, making it highly suitable for assembly applications such as furniture, container glass and lighting and appliance sub-assemblies.

Intertronics MD Peter Swanson explains: "Dymax 431 cures in seconds with conventional UV curing lamps, but also cures with LED-based UV curing lamps, like our BlueWave LED Prime. This adhesive was specifically designed with low shrinkage, which results in reduced stress on the bond line or larger cured surfaces."

Dymax 431 offers a high degree of adhesion to glass and metal with the flexibility required for shock resistance. It is therefore suitable for assembly applications in the glass, appliance and lighting manufacturing industries where it enables rapid bonding of glass and metal (stainless steel, aluminium, brass and copper) and can also be considered for bonding a wide variety of plastics such as ABS, CAP, PA, PC, PCTG, PEBA, PEEK, PET, PETG, PI, PVC and SAN, as well as ceramic and FR4.
