April 14, 2026

BLUESIL™ ESA 8352 A&B from Elkem ASA’s Silicones division is a two-component adhesive designed to meet the exacting demands of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in industrial environments. Curing at room temperature, the product combines advanced self-bonding technology with outstanding thermal resistance to ensure robust assemblies, even in harsh conditions. BLUESIL ESA 8352 A&B also reduces energy consumption, promoting more sustainable production practices.

The adhesive provides manufacturers with dependable, primeless adhesion on multiple substrates including metals and plastics. It tolerates thermal expansion, resists both high temperatures and chemical exposure, and creates durable, leak-proof seals essential for modern HVAC environments.

With a handling time of about half an hour / between 25 to 30 min , BLUESIL ESA 8352 A&B improves manufacturing of the HVAC units. Certified UL 94 HB for flammability resistance, the adhesive withstands continuous temperatures up to 180 °C (356 °F), with peaks reaching 220 °C (428 °F). It adapts to complex geometries and works seamlessly with precise dosing systems, helping manufacturers achieve consistent results and reduce defects.
