Elastomer Adhesive (rubber adhesive)
Elastomer adhesive is composed of main components of such high polymer Elastomer as Chloroprene, nitrile rubber and SBR, and has an excellent initial startup since curing is provided by evaporation of organic solvent and water.
Features
Various types of adhesion
1. Contact adhesion
Adhesive is applied on both sides of the materials, which are put together after an open time of 5 to 30 minutes when the surface is dried up. This will provide adhesion featuring excellent initial strength without the need for temporary fixation.
2. Pressure-sensitive adhesion
Extensive pressure-sensitive adhesion area in the curing process will allow wide-area adhesion of foams and sheets by coating on one side, depending on the conditions.
3. Reactivated adhesion
Elastomer adhesive permits adhesion of the materials after the adhesive coated thereon is dried up and adhesive is reactivated by solvent and heat (about 100°C).
4. Heating and pressurized adhesion
Adhesion of the materials in the same way as heat reactivated adhesion followed up immediately by heat pressing will provide adhesion featuring excellent adhesive strength and heat resistance.
Diversity in coating
1. Brush, spatula and special trowel
2. Air spray, air-less spray
3. Roll coater and curtain coater
Three big features of nitrile rubber
1. Excellent oil resistance
2. Superb adhesive property on plasticized polyvinylchloride
3. Good heat aging
