Mercury-Free PUR adhesive bonds to thermoplastics.


A new line of polyurethane adhesives that do not contain mercury are recommended for assembly of thermoplastic A polymer material that turns to liquid when heated and becomes solid when cooled. There are more than 40 types of thermoplastics, including acrylic, polypropylene, polycarbonate and polyethylene.  components and other parts aimed at the global marketplace that is governed by new, strict environmental regulations. In the past, mercury catalysts have been used in PUR to promote curing. New mercury-free Araldite 2041-1 and 2042-1 from Huntsman Advanced Materials Advanced Materials is a leading peer-reviewed materials science journal published every two weeks. Advanced Materials includes Communications, Reviews, and Feature Articles from the cutting edge of materials science, including topics in chemistry, physics, , The Woodlands, Texas, reportedly are fast setting, with open times of 2.5 to 12 min, and attain handling strength after 6 hr at 77 F. They bond PC, ABS, nylon, and Metton DCPD DCPD Dicyclopentadiene

 liquid molding resin with minimal surface preparation.

Colored black, these adhesives are supplied in cartridges with a 1:1 mix ratio. Once cured, they boast good flexibility with elongation of about 250% and lap shear strength For the shear strength of soil, see .

Shear strength in engineering is a term used to describe the strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure where the material or component fails in shear.
