UV Cure & Light-Cure Adhesives

UV-cure adhesives cure on-demand when exposed to UV or visible light — eliminating mixing, enabling precise dispensing, and accelerating production throughput. Key considerations include substrate compatibility, shadow cure requirements, viscosity, and regulatory compliance.

  • Selecting the right UV-cure adhesive for your substrate
  • Light-cure system selection: spot, flood, and conveyor
  • Shadow cure and secondary cure mechanisms
  • Biocompatible and USP Class VI grades for medical devices
  • Dispensing equipment and applicator selection

Structural Adhesives: Cyanoacrylates, Epoxies & Anaerobics

Structural adhesives provide high-strength permanent bonds for demanding industrial and medical applications. Permabond's engineering adhesive range covers virtually every bonding challenge — from instant-bonding cyanoacrylates to high-temperature threadlockers and two-part epoxies.

  • Cyanoacrylates (instant adhesives) for plastics, rubber, and metals
  • Epoxies for high-strength, chemical-resistant structural bonds
  • Anaerobic threadlockers, retaining compounds, and gasketing
  • Modified acrylics for flexible, impact-resistant bonds on dissimilar materials
  • Choosing between permanent and removable threadlocking grades

Conformal Coatings & Encapsulants

Conformal coatings protect PCBs and electronic assemblies from moisture, dust, chemicals, and thermal stress. Encapsulants and potting compounds provide structural protection for sensors, connectors, and modules in harsh environments. Selecting the right coating type and application method is critical for long-term reliability.

  • Acrylic, silicone, urethane, and epoxy conformal coating chemistries
  • Selective coating vs. full-board coating methods
  • Conformal coating tape for masking during application
  • UV-cure conformal coatings for rapid production throughput
  • IPC-CC-830 compliance and testing

Adhesive Storage & Shelf Life

Proper storage is critical to maintaining adhesive performance. Temperature, humidity, and light exposure all affect shelf life — especially for UV-cure and cyanoacrylate products. Following manufacturer storage guidelines protects your investment and ensures consistent bond quality.

  • Storage temperatures by adhesive chemistry
  • Shelf life guidelines for cyanoacrylates, epoxies, anaerobics, and UV-cure
  • Handling opened vs. unopened containers
  • Impact of temperature extremes and humidity on adhesive performance
