Low cost alternative to squeeze bottles and hand syringes

Low cost alternative to squeeze bottles and hand syringes

The new Ultra 870 dispenser makes it easy to apply controlled beads of adhesives and sealants, fill cavities with epoxy, and apply other assembly fluids "by eye" when a timed shot is not required. Typical applications include solvent bonding, sealing housings with beads of RTV silicone, and potting electronic components with epoxy. Unlike squeeze bottles, hand syringes and other manual applicators, the Ultra 870 uses controlled air pressure to apply material at a uniform rate without straining or repetitive hand motions.

Chemists look to higher viscosities

Chemists look to higher viscosities

Chemence research and development chemists have solved a production problem for a large manufacturer in the electronics industry. The company bonds rubber gaskets to aluminium on a production line with very short cycle times. It was using RiteLok SF100 cyanoacrylate adhesive and asked Chemence to develop a higher viscosity material for an application where controlled squeeze out and the ability to work on inclined surfaces without dripping are important. Additionally, the assembled parts had to undergo rigorous environmental tests before approval.

Adhesive resists exposure to repeated sterilisation

Adhesive resists exposure to repeated sterilisation

Master Bond has developed a new two component heat cured epoxy adhesive called EP45HTMed. This compound is durable, tough and resistant to exposure to thermal shock and many chemicals. It can withstand long term exposure form –80degF to 500degF and has a glass transition temperature of greater than 185degC. Adhesion to metals, glass, ceramics, wood, vulcanized rubber and many plastics is excellent. The cured system is a superb electrical insulator.
