Characteristics and uses of silicone adhesive
09 Jul 2024
Silicone adhesive is a treatment agent specially used before applying double-sided adhesive to silicone, which belongs to the category of silicone treatment agent (modifier). The following is a detailed introduction to silicone adhesive:
Characteristics and uses
Characteristics: Silicone adhesive is a transparent liquid that can effectively improve the surface polarity of silicone material and greatly improve the bonding performance. The treated silicone can not only be used for silicone double-sided adhesive, but also has good effects on spraying paint and screen printing on silicone.
Uses:
Mainly used for bonding silicone to double-sided adhesive, silicone foot pads, silicone accessories, rubber accessories, PVC accessories, etc.
Suitable for modification of silicone surface to improve the bonding ability of silicone surface, so as to facilitate the use of ordinary adhesive materials and silicone substrates for bonding. For example, acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive is used to bond silicone shockproof pads to other substrates.
It is mostly used in the fields of silicone foot pads, anti-slip pads, heated silicone plates with adhesive backing, and Lego building blocks that can be repeatedly pasted.
Usage
Clean impurities such as oil, water, etc. on the surface of silicone rubber products to be bonded.
Apply the silicone adhesive to the surface of the silicone rubber product to be bonded, usually one or two times.
Leave it to dry for a few minutes at room temperature, then leave the double-sided tape for about 2 hours to stick it together, and the practical strength reaches the highest point.
Precautions
Before use, make sure the workplace is well ventilated and away from fire.
This product contains organic solvents and must be stored as flammable items. Pay attention to ventilation and prevent contact with open flames.
After using the glue, it should be covered at any time to prevent solvent evaporation and moisture from infiltrating.
After using the glue tool, it can be immersed in the solvent for cleaning.
Store in a cool and dry place, avoid direct sunlight.
Storage and shelf life
Silicone adhesive generally has an effective storage shelf life of one year, but it can still be used after passing the inspection.
In summary, silicone adhesive is a powerful silicone treatment agent that can significantly improve the bonding performance of silicone and double-sided adhesive and other materials, providing convenience for the manufacture and application of silicone products.
