Epoxy
for parts subjected to arcing conditions or those requiring outdoor weatherability. Excellent adhesion in structural applications is another outstanding property of epoxy systems. Epoxy adhesives for bonding many dissimilar materials can be supplied either as one or two-part systems. One-part systems

Promoter for Increased Bonding of PET and Polyimide with Epoxy Adhesive System (.pdf)
®) polymers. Background. Epoxy adhesives are the most widely used structural adhesives because of their ability to adhere. to a wide variety of materials, their high strength, resistance to chemicals, resistance to harsh. environments and their ability to resist creep under sustained load. Often however

Fast Bike
Epoxy bonding can be a quick means of throwing together structural parts when you need a fast prototype. The prototype suspension-equipped mountain bike frame is made from carbon and Kevlar laminates bonded with West System epoxy resin. The suspension system is a free-floating design that doesn't

Stronger and Lighter -- Composites Make Their Mark
). The accompanying figure presents specific stiffness and specific tensile strength of conventional structural metals (steel, titanium, aluminum, magnesium, and beryllium) and selected composite materials. The composites are epoxy-matrix PMCs reinforced with a variety of fibers and one MMC, aluminum

Laser Machining Fiber-Reinforced Plastics
Fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) is a composite structural material containing high-strength fibrous embedded reinforcements which develop mechanical properties greatly superior to the base polymer (called 'matrix' in this context). The fibers are usually fiberglass, carbon, or aramid (a family

Attachment anxiety
adhesives are commonly used for bonding LED, clock, and timer displays where rapid fixturing and cure is required. Epoxies are commonly used as structural adhesives and offer high-bond strength, good adhesion to substrates, excellent gap-filling capabilities, superior electrical properties, and good
