“adhere” at Intertronics are pleased to announce new UV curable LCD
application adhesives from product partner DYMAX. This range is specially
formulated for applications where crystal clear, invisible bonds are
required, such as LCD screens, monitors, outdoor kiosks and navigation
systems. This range sticks glass to glass, glass to plastic, and plastic
to plastic - with clear, bubble-free bonds.
These one-component LCD adhesives feature excellent resistance to
yellowing, with increased light transmission and accurate colour,
enhancing the brightness and clarity of liquid crystal displays,
monitors, screens and kiosk panels.
The solvent-free laminating adhesives bond a variety of common substrates
including polycarbonate, glass, CAB, acrylic, phenolic, PET and ITO in
seconds upon exposure to UV light. The ability to “on-demand cure” means
substrates can be repositioned precisely until parts are ready to be
cured, leading to reduced air entrapment and no bubbles, creating strong,
ripple-free bonds that help increase panel strength.
Using a thin layer of LCD adhesive controls cost and can reduce the
weight of the final product. The adhesives also act as a barrier against
stress, significantly improving reliability and warranty costs. LCD
adhesives come in a variety of viscosities for ease of use and controlled
dispensing and are available in a wide range of packaging sizes. Fast
bonding of glass to glass, glass to plastic and plastic to plastic allows
for immediate processing of parts and increased through-put. Further
