FixFast UV Adhesive.

UV-curing adhesives are one component, solvent free and mainly cold curing systems.

These products cure quickly by means of UV-light. Generally the whole system functions in the following way.

The liquid adhesive, called monomer, is filled with photo-initiators. When these initiators are activated by light they turn into so-called radicals and the polymerisation process starts.

The base for most UV adhesives are acrylics or epoxies.

Application:

       The product is applied to one of the mating parts. The two parts are assembled and then illuminated by UV light. Advantages of this radical system are as follows: Self determined open time for fixing the parts, a very fast setting time after illumination and a high final shear strength. A limitation of this system is that at least one mating part must be transparent and should not block UV rays.
