Adhesive for acrylic aesthetics

We have many customers who bond acrylic (PMMA) parts together to make display cabinets or point of sale structures. One way of doing this is to use a solvent based adhesive, but these often give cloudy or untidy joints. In an industry where cosmetic aesthetics is important (like selling cosmetics!), a clear and structurally secure joint is required.

One solution is to use DYMAX 3099 (pdf file), a UV curing plastic bonder which works particularly well on acrylic. It gives a very strong, high clarity bond, and offers all the advantages of UV cure: a single part adhesive, very fast cure. Combined with a UV curing lamp, DYMAX 3099 has been used for exhibition displays, trophies, post of sale stands, signs, covers, and many other acrylic applications.
