Bonding Nitrile, Polychloroprene and Natural Rubbers

Cyanoacrylates bond well to nitrile, polychloroprene and natural rubbers and fast bonding times can be achieved with ethyl cyanoacrylates (see also Section 10.1). Mould release agents however, can sometimes affect the adhesion and further practical guidelines are given in Section 10.12. 

In the automotive industry, cyanoacrylates are used to bond a nitrile rubber sleeve to an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) adjustment arm of an automotive mirror. The adhesive supplements a push fit and tests showed that the cyanoacrylate fully exceeded
