PRODUCTS FASTENINGS & ADHESIVES JETTABLE CONDUCTIVE ADHESIVES
Panacol has expanded its Elecolit product portfolio, which is available in the UK from Techsil. Thanks to new filling materials and optimized hardener systems, adhesives with improved conductivity are now available which can be applied by jetting. Several one-part Elecolit conductive adhesives have been
modified for snap-curing ability; and new hardener systems in many of the one-part epoxy based adhesives develop a cure within minutes. The new Elecolit silver filled adhesives are both electrically and thermally conductive and available in a range of viscosities. As the conductivity is strongly dependent on the content of conductive filler, Panacol uses what it describes as uniquely shaped filling materials to achieve an optimal fill ratio. This ensures high conductivity and consistent product performance. Panacol provides an
extensive Elecolit product
portfolio of one and two part conductive adhesives suitable for: shielding and ESD protection, electrically conductive contacting and bonding of conducting paths within the electronic field, electrically conductive bonding on circuit boards and PCBs, and die bonding and flip chips.

DELO has partnered with Bollhoff to develop ONSERT, a new way to securely connect elements. Based on stud welding, ONSERT technology combines bonding and screwing with elements of fastening, such as threaded bolts with a transparent plastic base, and bonds it to fibre composite materials. The threaded rod of the ONSERT can be repeatedly attached and unattached with ease. In addition, this eliminates visible impact on materials such as fibre-reinforced plastics, thin sheet metal, lacquered or polished surfaces and glass, for a cleaner, more appealing look, the company explains. This is a fast acting technology that can be cured within four seconds using a
DELOLUX LED lamp. The flexible design and production of this quick joining method allows users to define the structural shape of various elements, including rod length and base diameter, and provides freedom during production as bonded bolts can be attached prior to final assembly of lacquered elements. ONSERT offers a pull-off strength of up to 2,000N when used with bonded
bolts on CFRP with a base diameter of 25mm. When higher forces are applied, a predetermined breaking point in the base ensures that the laminate of the composite remains intact and no fibres are torn out. Applications include those in the automotive, aviation and consumer industries
to secure cable holders, clips, sensor holders and brake lines, as well as insulation panels and claddings. This flexible bonding method can be used with composites, thin sheet metals and plastics.

AN ADHESIVE A COMPREHENSIVE ADHESIVE RANGE CAMPAIGN
Drawing upon its 60 years heritage, Huntsman Advanced Materials has developed a comprehensive range of adhesives to provide solutions to the large majority of design issues that engineers face on a daily basis. Compared to mechanical joining, adhesive bonding
A wide range of products are manufactured using Henkel’s LOCTITE adhesives, including signs, golf clubs, baby strollers and high-tech vehicles. Now, the manufacturers using these are collaborating in the new ‘LOCTITE – Success Secured’ campaign. These include: Joker FX, a designer and manufacturer of visual communication displays; PING, one of the world’s top names in golf equipment; 4moms, a company that produces baby strollers, seats and other baby-related products; and Local Motors, which has manufactured a 3D printed car called Strati that comprises just 49 parts. The campaign features company
directors, managers and senior engineers talking about the advantages delivered by LOCTITE products. Visit

allows the assembly of dissimilar substrates and higher weight loads to be carried while offering more uniform stress distribution across the entire bonded joint and superior fatigue resistance, the company explains. Adhesives also offer the potential to minimise costs in parts production through simplified assembly processes. They are vital in manufacturing exterior and interior parts in order to deliver superior performance, durability and aesthetics. The Araldite adhesives range for assembly
operations contains a selection of adhesives from the latest epoxy, polyurethane and methacrylate
BONDING A VARIETY OF MATERIALS
technologies to meet the great majority of high-performance bonding applications. From adhesives with long open times for large area applications to fast-curing adhesives for early removal from fixtures and rapid through-put, this range includes adhesives which are resistant to high temperature, water and chemicals. Liquid adhesives as well as thixotropic
adhesives for gap-filling or vertical applications can be found in this range. It includes high strength versions as well as tough and impact-resistant adhesives with a combination of strength and flexibility; plus elastic adhesives to cope with different thermal expansions when bonding larger structures of dissimilar materials.

Now available from Intertronics is L&L A-K015. Providing clear bondlines in plastics assemblies, this has a fixture time of three to four minutes and robust, primerless, adhesion. This two-component toughened methyl
methacrylate adhesive is suitable for bonding plastics or other materials, including most metals, thermoplastics and composite substrates. Developed originally for automotive assembly, A-K015 offers the benefits of high strength, impact durable bonds which are resistant to weathering – such as salt spray and QUV radiation. It is also non-flammable and low odour.
