Choose the most appropriate curing method according to different requirements

The curing process is the most vital part of the adhesive characteristics, which stands as one of the most significant ways to judge the usage of one kind of adhesive. It depends on the circumstance where we want to apply the adhesive, how we store it, and whether we can get rid of it after using it. Different conditions in need of adhesive spawn diversified requirements of them.

Therefore, clarifying and choosing the adhesives which have appropriate curing mechanism is important. The curing method can be mainly divided
into light-initiated curing, thermosetting curing, moisture curing, etc.

Mostly, light-initiating curing is activated by high-energy ultraviolet ray photons, while heating plays the role of activator in the thermosetting curing process.  Moisture curing is commonly used in mild conditions, as the energy to initiate the reaction is supplied by the adhesive molecule itself instead of provided by extraneous factors.

Moisture cure adhesives uniquely react with moisture in the environment or the underlying layer in order to cure. While this curing process can take days to complete, moisture cure adhesives have unique uses for the bonding and use of construction materials.

Epoxies and urethanes are the most common chemistries used in heat-cure applications. However, other adhesives, such as acrylics or methacrylates, can be negatively affected by higher temperatures during the cure process and are less likely to use heat.
