Advice on Choosing the Right Adhesive

Sealants are designed to meet all bonding and sealing requirements while significantly reducing production time. Bostik has led the market in SMP (Silyl Modified Polymer) technology in the transportation industry for over 25 years. The UV resistance makes the sealant ideal for sealing windows and bus body structures. SMP products also save time in the painting process. Paint can be applied once the beads have formed, while polyurethane sealant needs to cure completely before painting.

Structural adhesives provide load-bearing capabilities, helping to increase strength for the final bonded assembly for durability. Bostik MMA (Methyl Methacrylate) provides a unique balance of high strength, impact resistance, flexibility, elongation, shear strength, and peel strength, and can be used over a wide temperature range. Bostik structural adhesives cure at ambient temperature with controlled curing rates and require little or no surface preparation. They are also moisture-insensitive and have excellent water and chemical resistance.

Hotmelt adhesives offer several advantages for a range of applications: optimal holding force for corrugated materials, superior flexibility for better performance under continuous pressure, and quick bonding. Bostik Butyls for exterior applications are non-hardening mastic sealants designed to form a weather-resistant and dust-proof adhesive that is highly flexible.

Liquid adhesives can be sprayed and provide excellent adhesion to low-energy surfaces. Solvent-based adhesives are designed for pressure-sensitive bonding with fast drying times, quick handling, and good resistance to sagging. Water-based bonding technology is an environmentally friendly product with high flexibility, fast evaporation but cannot bond to many substrates. The adhesive also has high adhesion and good water and heat resistance.
