Before curing, an adhesive formulated with See-Cure technology appears blue, allowing for easy verification of its positioning on the parts. When the product is cured with sufficient exposure to UV light, the blue color changes to colorless, providing clear visual confirmation that the adhesive has fully cured and the bond is secure.
Products formulated with Ultra-Red™ technology exhibit a bright fluorescent red appearance when exposed to low-intensity black light (365 nm), providing exceptional contrast on plastics that naturally fluoresce blue (such as PVC). This allows manufacturers to incorporate manual or automated quality inspection methods to verify accurate and complete adhesive placement after curing. Dymax currently offers several medical-grade adhesive options formulated with the new Encompass™ Technology.
In addition to adhesives and coatings, Dymax also offers high-performance oligomers and a variety of dispensing and light-curing equipment. The company's products are specifically designed to work seamlessly together, providing design engineers with essential tools that dramatically improve manufacturing efficiency and significantly reduce costs.
