High stability at elevated temperatures and resistance to ultraviolet radiation, which can be further enhanced with suitable stabilizers. High vinylacetate content can serve for formulating a hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive (HMPSA). EVA formulations are compatible with paraffin. EVA was the base for the original hot melt composition.
Vapour is heavier-than-air and explosive. Toxic, neuropsychological effects. Rapidly absorbed through undamaged skin and lungs. Produces toxic ozone. [2] Dichloromethane: Dissolves: Polycarbonate; Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), commonly called "acrylic glass" among other brand names; it is volatile, boiling at 39.6°C (103.3°F; 312.8K)
Styrene block copolymers (SBC), also called styrene copolymer adhesives and rubber-based adhesives, have good low-temperature flexibility, high elongation, and high heat resistance. They are frequently used in hot melt adhesive applications, where the composition retains tack even when solidified; however non-pressure-sensitive formulations are ...
J-B Weld is a two-part epoxy adhesive (or filler) that can withstand high-temperature environments. J-B Weld can be used to bond surfaces made from metal, porcelain, ceramic, glass, marble, PVC, ABS, concrete, fiberglass, wood, fabric, or paper. [7] [8] Alcohol should be avoided when cleaning surfaces, as it can degrade the bond. [9]
If the adhesive is to be used within six months, it is not necessary to refrigerate it. Cyanoacrylates are moisture-sensitive, and moving from a cool to a hot location will create condensation; after removing from the refrigerator, it is best to let the adhesive reach room temperature before opening. After opening, it should be used within 30 days.
The high tack material comprises about 95% of the adhesive and provides the majority of the adhesive's tackiness. [6] In addition to these 2 components, surfactants are often added to reduce the surface energy of the adhesive and facilitate adhesion to high surface energy substrates (metals, other polymeric materials).

Structural adhesives can be used to create load-bearing joints. Although many adhesives such as sealants, hot melt adhesives and even acrylic foam tapes can bear loads, the term structural adhesive is typically used where joints will have lap shear strength greater than 1450 psi. [3] The different types of structural adhesives are: Epoxies
Thermal adhesive is a type of thermally conductive glue used for electronic components and heat sinks. It can be available as a paste (similar to thermal paste) or as a double-sided tape. [1] It is commonly used to bond integrated circuits to heatsinks where there are no other mounting mechanisms available.
