PERMABOND® UV639 is a UV-curing adhesive developed for use on plastics. It has superb adhesion to acrylic, polycarbonate and PETG. This adhesive can also be used to bond glass, metals and other materials. UV639 cures to give a colourless bond so is ideal for applications where aesthetic appearance is vitally important.
FEATURES:
- Cure on demand
- Highly transparent
- Excellent adhesion to plastics
- High elongation
- Low shrinkage
