- A Technical Guide to Cure Inhibition Cure Inhibition with Addition Silicones Addition cure silicones will bond to most substrates when heated to >120⁰C (hydrolisation); however certain products on the surface of the substrate could inhibit the cure of the silicone or poison it, resulting in a non-cure. Addition cure silicone ...
- A Technical Guide to Material Viscosity & Shore Hardness Viscosity Viscosity is a measurement of how resistant a fluid is when attempts are made to move through it. A fluid with low viscosity of said to be 'thin', whilst a high viscosity is said the be 'thick' and more viscous. Units: mPa.s = Millipascal seconds Conversion = mPa.s = cPs = cSt x ...
- PPWR, Sustainability, and Adhesives The EU packaging and packaging waste regulation (PPWR) which entered into force in February 2025, imposes stricter requirements on the recyclability of packaging materials entering the EU market. Compliance with this regulation ensures access to the EU market as all non-compliant packaging will ...
