Nylon recommended adhesives

Compatibility of ethanol with tank and piping materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, and Fiberglas is good. Zinc linings and epoxy linings are not stable in ethanol systems and are not recommended for use. Also, epoxy adhesives and resins are dissolved by ethanol. Teflon and nylon are compatible elastomers. In... 

Polysulfone A number of adhesives have been found useful for joining polysufone to itself or to other materials. These include 3M Company s EC 880 solvent-base adhesive, EC 2216 room-temperaturecuring epoxy two-part paste, Bloomingdale Division, American Cyana-mid Company BR-92 modified epoxy with DICY curing agent, or curing agent "Z" (both spreadable pastes), vinyl-phenolics, epoxy-nylons, epoxies, polyimide, rubber-based adhesives, styrene polyesters, resorcinol-formaldehyde, polyurethanes, and cyanoacrylates. The EC 880, EC 2216, and the two BR-92 adhesives are recommended by the polysulfone manufacturer. Union Carbide (16) (17). 

Adhesives recommended include epoxies, polyurethane, silicone, nylon-epoxy, nitrile-phenolic, neoprene-phenolic, acrylic, cyanoacrylate, anaerobics, and partially hydrogenated polybutadiene (for bonding copper to polyethylene). 

There are a number of types, based on their chemical structure, but the most important and most widely used is nylon 6,6. The best adhesives for bonding nylon to nylon are solvents. Various commercial adhesives, especially those based on phenol-formaldehyde (phenolics) and epoxy resins, are sometimes used for bonding nylon to nylon, although they are usually considered inferior to the solvent type because they result in a brittle joint. Adhesives recommended include nylon-phenoUc, nitrile-phenolic, nitriles, neoprene, modified epoxy, cyanoacrylate, modified phenolic, resorcinol-formaldehyde, and polyurethane. Bonds in the range of 1.7-6.9 MPa, depending on the thickness of the adherends, have been obtained. ... 

A typical processing aminimide rubber-fibre adhesive formulation recommended for predipping polyester, nylon, and other polyamides is given in Table 8.5. The dip is prepared by dissolving the aminimide and surfactant in water with moderate stirring. The epoxy resin is then added... 

Ex. 2. A typical, excellent processing, aminimide rubber-to-fiber adhesive formulation recommended for pre-dipping polyester, nylon, and other polyamides comprises the fol-lowing "...
