The acquisition of Royce reportedly expands Gabriel’s offerings of solutions for the coatings, adhesives, and composites markets.
April 10, 2018
Gabriel Performance Products recently announced the acquisition of Royce International, a supplier of specialty epoxy resins, diluents, curing agents, and additives.
The primary forces are shrinkage of the adhesive on curing and large differences in thermal expansion coefficients between the substrates and the adhesive. High stresses can cause delamination of bonds or damage to the substrates, such as glass cracking.
The adhesives are powered by a patented hybrid technology that combines attributes of structural, instant and epoxy adhesives, bond strength, speed and durability.
The high-temperature sealants market is witnessing moderate growth suggested to be due to their extreme temperature resistant properties, the increasing production of automobiles, and increasing demand from emerging economies.
