Energy Curable Assembly Adhesives

UV curable adhesives have been used in electronics and electrical manufacturing operations for many years. There are many uses, such as bonding of coils, bonding of loudspeaker membranes, bonding and sealing of wires in ducfs, bonding of liquid crystal displays, and bonding of membrane swifches.  

Another well-established use of UV/visible lighf curing adhesives is glass, a plastics bonding in the automotive industry. Typical applications are lamination of safety glass, fastening of rear-view mirrors to windshields, and assembly of headlights.  

In the medical field, UV curable adhesives are used in fhe assembly of medical devices, such as syringes, valves, manifolds for filtering equipmenf, and arteriographs. In these applications, many dissimilar substrates, such as stainless steel, aluminum, glass, polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), PVC, and other thermoplastics, are bonded.
