Urethaneliimoista

Urethane adhesives, often referred to as urethaneliimat in Finnish, are a type of adhesive based on polyurethane chemistry. These adhesives are known for their strong bonding capabilities and versatility, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Urethane adhesives typically form a flexible yet durable bond, which allows them to withstand impact, vibration, and temperature fluctuations. They can adhere to a variety of substrates including plastics, metals, wood, and rubber.

The curing process for urethane adhesives can vary. Some are moisture-curing, reacting with ambient humidity to harden, while others are two-part systems that require mixing before application. The curing time can range from minutes to hours, depending on the specific formulation and environmental conditions. Once cured, urethane adhesives offer good resistance to chemicals, water, and UV radiation. This makes them a preferred choice in industries such as automotive manufacturing, construction, footwear production, and electronics assembly. Their ability to form a resilient bond is particularly advantageous where flexibility and durability are paramount.
