Impact of Temperature on Adhesive Curing

Similar reasoning is applicable to monomer molecules. Owing to the increase in temperature their mobility increases and thus the probability to meet each other and form the polymer AB their reaction rate increases, the adhesive cures completely and more quickly. So the curing time of a reactive adhesive can be reduced by heat supply. 

This appreciated impact of temperature also enables the production of reactive adhesives for which pot life, usually undesired in the adhesive application, can almost be avoided. For this purpose, monomers are chosen which, due to their chemical inertness , are not inclined to react with each other at room temperature or below. Thus, in a mixed state, they are nonreactive and can be applied
