Adhesives optimise yacht manufacturing process

Adhesives optimise yacht manufacturing process

Composite materials from Huntsman Advanced Materials have been used by Pauger Carbon Composites to construct an innovative 50 foot long twin-mast catamaran called the Fifty-Fifty. Pauger Carbon Composites, a Hungarian manufacturer of composite yachts and masts, designed and built the catamaran in time for this year's Blue Ribbon Regatta on Lake Balaton in Hungary. The design objectives were to achieve the best power-to-weight ratio possible in constructing a light weight vessel capable of achieving high speeds in long distance sailing.

Simple, high quality approach to sealing and bonding tasks

Simple, high quality approach to sealing and bonding tasks

Multi-Seals has introduced an innovative alternative to liquid adhesives for component assembly. Multi-Seals F05 Poly-forms are flexible pre-shaped adhesives designed for bonding diverse materials, including metals, plastics, and glass. F05 has negligible vertical flow, which keeps the adhesive contained in precisely defined areas. The pre-shaped copolymer prevents drips and dispensing inconsistencies typical of liquid adhesives.
