Results for tag: "Reactive Adhesives"

Reactive adhesives are a type of adhesive that form strong, permanent bonds when exposed to a catalyst. They are used in a variety of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and construction. Reactive adhesives are a subset of adhesives and sealants, which are materials used to join two surfaces together. Adhesives and sealants are typically divided into two categories: reactive and non-reactive. Reactive adhesives are further divided into two types: thermosetting and thermoplastic. Thermosetting adhesives are cured by heat, while thermoplastic adhesives are cured by cooling. Reactive adhesives are known for their superior strength and durability, making them ideal for applications that require a strong bond. They are also resistant to environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and UV radiation. Additionally, reactive adhesives are often used in applications where a fast cure time is required. Some companies in the reactive adhesives market include 3M, Henkel, Sika, Bostik, and Dow. Show Less Read more
