Innovative Sealing Technology Drives Performance in Vehicle Assembly and Repair
A cornerstone of one adhesives company's ongoing developments is the innovative bonding and sealing technology known as Silyl Modified Polymers (SMP). Advanced SMP polymer sealants and adhesives are solvent- and isocyanate-free products specially engineered for adhesion on a wide range of substrate materials used to fabricate and repair truck trailers and containers, buses, recreational vehicles (RVs), train cars, and light-rail vehicles.
Bostik Findley, Inc., Middleton, Mass., offers environmentally friendly, solvent-free adhesives and sealants for the transportation and transit vehicle assembly and repair industries. A cornerstone of the global adhesives company’s ongoing developments is the innovative bonding and sealing technology known as Silyl Modified Polymers (SMP).
SMP products offer the versatility to customize viscosity and green strength for various end-use applications. Additionally, SMP polymer adhesives and sealants eliminate or minimize pretreatment of substrates, while ensuring optimal elongation and tensile-strength properties for durable, yet flexible, tear-resistant bonds. Moisture-curing SMP systems also provide a very fast skin time ranging from 15 to 45 minutes.
