Specialty adhesives, sealants and compounds are specialized and/or proprietary products with unique chemistries, cure technologies and/or compositions.

Industrial adhesives are organic or inorganic chemical compounds for joining components. This category covers all adhesive types.

Hot melt adhesives are solvent-free chemical compounds that are used to join materials. They can be repeatedly softened by heat and hardened or set by cooling, allowing parts to be removed or repositioned during assembly.

Thermoplastics and thermoplastic materials soften when heated and harden when cooled. They can withstand many heating and cooling cycles and are often suitable for recycling.

Acrylic adhesives and acrylate adhesives provide excellent environmental resistance and fast-setting times when compared to other resins systems. They are created by p olymerizing acrylic or methylacrylic acids through a reaction with a suitable catalyst.

Plastic sheet and plastic film is formed to a precise thickness and used in many different applications.

Epoxy adhesives are chemical compounds for joining components. They require clean surfaces and are valued for their toughness and resistance to chemical and environmental damage.

Plastics and plastic materials are organic, synthetic or processed polymers that are supplied as raw materials or stock shapes. They typically consist of thermoplastic or thermosetting resins and can be made into many forms.

Elastomers and rubber materials are characterized by their high degree of flexibility and elasticity (high reversible elongation or resilience).

Anaerobic adhesives and sealants cure in the absence of air or oxygen.

Pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) and contact adhesives adhere to most surfaces with very slight pressure. They are available in solvent and latex or water based forms.

Polyurethane adhesives and sealants provide excellent flexibility, impact resistance, and durability. They are available in one-part or two-part adhesive systems.

Rubber adhesives and rubber sealants are highly flexible, natural or synthetic materials that are used to join components or fill gaps between seams or on surfaces.

Industrial sealants are liquid or viscous compounds used between surfaces to contain fluids, prevent leaks, and prevent infiltration of unwanted material. They may also include compounds for filling gaps or seams.

UV curing adhesives use ultraviolet (UV) light or other radiation sources to initiate curing, which allows a permanent bond without heating.
