The new Spectrum™ II Cleanroom Series of fluid dispensers was reportedly created for applications that are sensitive to contamination by submicron-sized particles.
PPG Industries recently announced it has begun operation of a new packaging unit installed at its Gonfreville, France, coatings plant and aerospace application support center.
Manufacturers are demanding increasingly robust and cost-effective solutions when facing challenges in bonding, potting, and form-in-place gaskets. As a result, two-part fluids are increasingly being specified to provide higher quality, consistency and endurance.
Adhesive bonding in industrial production often requires very short curing times. In the case of reactive adhesives, this generally means high curing temperatures.
Assembly and manufacturing processes are highly dependent on the rapid and effective curing of ultraviolet (UV) adhesives. Historically, mercury arc lamps have been used as the curing source in a wide range of industrial applications and processes to polymerize adhesives.
