Request InfoFast-Cure, Low-Shrink Adhesive Dymax, HeadquartersTORRINGTON, Conn., Aug. 14, 2009 – Dymax Corp.’s OP-67-LS optical-mechanical adhesive cures in seconds to bond optical components. Its low-shrink nature virtually eliminates movement during curing and subsequent thermal cycling, and it provides users with the ability to cure on demand upon exposure to long-wave UV and visible light, allowing maximum flexibility in positioning parts prior to cure. The adhesive offers good moisture resistance, low outgassing and adhesion to a variety of substrates including metal, glass, ceramic and polycarbonate, enabling its use in many critical and demanding applications.
