Technical Adhesives

Since 1988, Final Advanced Materials offers technical adhesives suitable for all your applications, from standard assemblies to bonding resistant to very high temperatures. With our selection of Bostik and Cotronics® products, we have the right adhesive solution for the most complex situations.

Our team of experts provides you with the advice required for selecting and implementing assembly solutions depending on the nature of the media to be assembled and mechanical, chemical and thermal stresses.

INDUSTRIAL TECHNICAL ADHESIVES

Final Advanced Materials expands its catalogue with Bostik Adhesives, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of adhesives and sealants. These bonding solutions are used in numerous applications and business sectors, including industrial manufacturing, construction, electronics, automotive, or medical devices. 

Bostik Born2Bond™ Adhesives are highly effective and offer high safety for users thanks to their formula with no CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic substances). They ensure respect for the environment and the workplace: energy efficient production processes, safer products, increased user comfort. Bostik is therefore determined to protect its users thanks to CMR-free formulas, but Bostik also works on unlabelled products, so with no hazard label.

We offer three Bostik assembly technologies.

    Cyanoacrylate instant adhesives

The revolutionary range of Born2Bond™ Cyanoacrylate Adhesives is intended for high-precision bonding. These adhesives make it possible to obtain efficient and instant adhesions to a very wide range of materials and surfaces. They emit low odour, have a low tendency to release white vapour (efflorescence). 

The range is composed of different types of products which will meet users’ challenges and stresses of different applications. They are deigned to adhere to most substrates, including plastics, rubbers, metals, as well as porous materials, such as wood. Formulations were designed to provide high bonding performance.

    Anaerobic adhesives

These assembly solutions were developed to protect the environment and the work place. In line with our commitment to offer safer solutions for users and the environment, these adhesives are solvent-free, and some grades are NSF certified and have no hazard pictogram.

Ideal for fastening and sealing operations, in particular with threadlocking, thread sealing, planar sealing and cylindric assemblies, the products of the whole range provide a more reliable, practical and cost-effective alternative to conventional mechanical fastening solutions. 

Characterised by their excellent resistance to impacts, vibrations, leaks, corrosion and torsion, the range products are as suitable for both high-precision applications and the heavy industry.

    UV adhesives

The range of fast-curing UV adhesives (UV-CIPG) is specifically designed to meet needs requiring a quick, efficient and precise solution, like in the electronic and automotive sectors.

UV-CIPG adhesives are easily applied thanks to the system of automated and programmable application for a specific application area. This technique not only saves numerous hours on the adhesive application time but  also reduces the volume of materials used. The adhesive instantly polymerises when the user wishes through the use of a UV lamp.

HIGH-TEMPERATURE ADHESIVES

Cotronics® adhesives

As the exclusive distributor of Cotronics®, Final Advanced Materials provides high-temperature adhesives capable of withstanding temperatures up to 3,000 °C. We provide epoxy-based adhesives, which resist up to 300°C, and ceramic bonding cements, supporting temperatures as high as 3,000°C.

    Cotronics® high-temperature epoxy adhesives

Our wide range of Cotronics^® high-temperature ceramic cement adhesives will allow you to select the most suitable product for your needs, up to 350°C and higher, to bond ceramic with ceramic, metal, glass or plastic, essential for research, electronics, metallurgy, industrial and nuclear applications and more.

Electro-conductive epoxy resin

By combining Cotronics^® specially loaded resins and hardeners, we have achieved these electrical conductivity required by some applications. The conductive layers enabled by these products can replace electronic solders, fix transistors in place, repair circuit boards, draw conductive paths and more. They bond to glass, ceramic, metals and most plastics. Their polymerisation can be accelerated to 120°C and above.

Thermal-conductive epoxy resin

By combining specially loaded Cotronics^® resins and hardeners we have achieved the thermal conductivity required by some high-temperature applications. The temperature resistance can reach 260°C or even 350°C (resin 133). The test assemblies are still in use. These bondings adhere to glass, ceramics, metals and plastics. They have excellent resistance to common chemicals and solvents.

Moulding epoxy resin

Our wide range of Cotronics^® high-performance moulding epoxy resins will enable you to select the most suitable product for your moulding application up to 315°C.

    Cotronics^® ceramic cement adhesives

Ceramic bonding cement

Our wide range of Cotronics^® high-temperature ceramic cement adhesives will allow you to select the most suitable product for your needs, up to more than 2000°C. Ceramic adhesives have been created to bond ceramic with ceramic, metal, glass or plastic, essential for research, electronics, metallurgy, industrial and nuclear applications and more.

Ceramic coating cement

Encapsulations are intended to protect and insulate circuits and components. The Cotronics^® Durapot range is designed to meet a variety of thermal, physical and electrical requirements. They harden at room temperature, and this can be accelerated by light heating. Excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents.

Moulding ceramic cement

Six grades of Cotronics^® Rescor mouldable ceramics are available. Each of these refractory cements is economical and efficient in the temperature range for which it is recommended. They are delivered ready to use, simply add demineralised and deionised water to use them, or the appropriate activator. They are moulded to make shaped pieces. Surface condition and accuracy depend on the quality and finish of the tooling.

    Threadlocking

Cotronics® offers a full range of Resbond® 907TS thread lockers. This easy-to-apply, single-component gel locks threaded assemblies, seals pipe joints, and reduces vibration.

Resbond® 907TS products withstand extreme temperatures, ranging from -180°C to 1,100°C, while maintaining their technical performance even in the harshest conditions. Their precise applicator bottle ensures quick and easy application. Compatible with metals, ceramics, and glass, they adapt to various screw sizes and applications.

Bismaleimide film

These adhesives are suitable for metal-glass bonding (aluminium, stainless steel, steel etc.), ceramic and selected plastics. These films are available as a dry layer of bismaleimide adhesive on a polyester carrier film. Treating with film adhesives is in many cases simpler than adhesive pastes since the adhesive can be cut to the desired shape and then applied to the required surface.

MULTI-MATERIAL ASSEMBLIES

Unlike to traditional methods such as mechanical fastening, welding and brazing, which are mainly suitable for similar materials and often involve perforations and high localised mechanical stresses, we use cutting-edge adhesive bondings for our multi-material assembly. 

This method offers several benefits: no deterioration of substrates, uniform distribution of stresses and aesthetic appearance.
