Black epoxy adhesives from Panacol's Vitralit product range can now be cured with UV light sources in thicker layers, without resorting to secondary curing mechanisms, notes a press release from the German-based company.
Conventional black UV adhesives have a major disadvantage: the black color absorbs a high proportion of the UV intensity, which means that the energy needed to fully polymerize an adhesive can only penetrate a few micrometers. This results in surface "skin" formation on black adhesives, but not a complete cure. They must then be cured in a secondary thermal curing process at temperatures above 100°C.
