General Information of PERMABOND UV643 UV-Curable Adhesive
PERMABOND UV643 UV-Curable Adhesive is a thixotropic, extremely fast UV-curable acrylic adhesive developed for the fast bonding of many rigid plastics, also in combination with metals. It cures tack-free and provides excellent performance on several thermoplastics including polycarbonate, PMMA PETG, PET, ABS, and rigid PVC. It also provides high durability when exposed to hot/wet conditions (i.e. tested at +85°C/85% RH).
Key Features
- Excellent strength on PC, PVC, and other rigid plastics
- Tack-free surface cure
- Very quick cure at wavelengths from 365 to 420 nm, good on stabilized plastics
- Exceptional resistance to warm and humid conditions
- Excellent resistance to thermal cycles on plastic assemblies
- Resists yellowing
