Light-curing adhesives make gluing joints invisible

Light-curing adhesives are single-component, reactive resins that will cure at room temperature when exposed to UV light and/or visible light. Light-curing acrylates are used for adhesion where at least one component consists of translucent material. Here, DELO PHOTOBOND adhesives show a wide range of elasticity, from very flexible over tension-equalizing to tough – for a variety of needs when creating lasting bonds. In production, curing within seconds supports short cycle times – great for challenging efficiency goals!

In addition, DELO offers LED curing lamps that have been especially developed. Combined with our light-curing adhesives, they enable fast curing and reliable processing at the same time.
