UV Epoxies
Epoxy Technology, Inc. offers a complete line of high performance Ultraviolet (UV) cure adhesives ranging in viscosity, flexibility, refractive index and light transmission.
UV cure epoxies provide advantages such as extremely fast curing rates, single component (no mixing) chemistries, solventless, accurate alignment of components, ease of automation, improved production rates and thermal energy savings over conventional systems (little power consumption) by the elimination of all or part of curing by heat.
The selection of an adhesive for a specific application depends on many factors such as viscosity, post-cure strength and hardness, shrinkage, Tg, the type of surface to be bonded, surface transparency, bond area and design/geometry. One must also consider the application method, such as having the proper viscosity/rheology to accurately deposit and apply the material. Another important criteria is refractive index. The refractive index of a material is the most important property of any optical system that transmits light. It is also used to calculate the focusing power of lenses, and the dispersive power of prisms.
UV cured epoxies may cure more slowly than acrylate based resins. Once the epoxy has been exposed to sufficient UV light, it will eventually cure at room temperature or very quickly with the addition of heat as a second step.

Frame Fast
Since its introduction, the Frame Fast® Adhesive System has been the standard for screen printers, milling professionals and industrial filter manufacturers throughout the world. These patented products are designed to bond various types of mesh to wood, aluminium and steel frames.
Cyberbond offers a wide range of Cyanoacrylate adhesives with varying attributes and viscosities. Various accelerators and screen adhesive removers complete the Frame Fast® line of products. Frame Fast® is a trademark of uncommon conglomerates inc. USA. In 2002 this company was acquired by Cyberbond LLC, USA and was integrated into the world wide operating Cyberbond family. In Europe, the well known brand name of Frame Fast® is certainly still used.
Next to the manual application, Cyberbond refer to its LINOP Dosing Equipment Program, which offers a variety of options to automatically apply the adhesive. State of the art represents the assembly of the Adhesive Valve and the Activator Spray Head on a robot arm. Due to different legislation in terms of handling chemicals, it may be that products differ slightly compared to the American grades. But this is mainly valid for solvent based activators and removers. Products with the same numbers in USA and Europe are of course identical.

Paleobond
Paleo-Bond products are developed and field tested by paleontologists for paleontologists. Anyone who is involved with paleontology knows that fossil recovery and preparation is time and labour intensive. Equipment and materials need to be of the highest quality to ensure success.
Paleo-Bond is a line of products that has been created specifically to aid in fossil collection, preparation and preservation. With Paleo-Bond, you always have the assurance that the products you are using have been made by people who care as much about fossil recovery as you do.
The Paleo-Bond fossil Penetrant Stabilizer has been developed to penetrate and stabilize fragile, porous fossil remains. When alkaline materials in the substrate interior consume the acidic stabilizer in the adhesive, it initiates the curing mechanism. This ensures that the entire volume of adhesive will be cured. Unlike other adhesives that may leave uncured material trapped inside a thin layer of adhesive, Paleo-Bond cures from the inside out, providing the best stabilisation process available.
Cracks in field-excavated specimens are a fact of life for us, and if they can be repaired during excavation, later preparation is much easier. Paleo-Bond Adhesives come in various viscosities that range from 5 to 2,500 mPa*s and in Gel form.
In order to allow a perfect bonding Paleo-Bond offers an Activator and a Debonder as an additional programme for Cyanoacrylate Adhesives.
PB002 – Cyanoacrylate Primer
This is the workhorse of the Paleo-Bond family. PB 002 is a primer for other adhesives as well. Due to its very low viscosity of 5 mPas, it penetrates deep into the vascular system of a fossil bone. To sum up, it fills micro cracks, strengthening the entire fossil structure. It captures punky, weak fossil material and hardens it in minutes.
PB4417 – Cyanoacrylate Field Collecting Reversible Adhesive
In the field, it is often wanted to hold something together prior to the final laboratory preparation. There are often dirty, out of alignment fossil parts that need a light bond to preserve integrity from field to lab. PB 4417 stabilizer with a viscosity of 5 mPa*s can be either air scribed or air abraded away, as you are preparing the specimen for permanent restoration. Two years of field testing have given Cyberbond the « go ahead » with this new product.
PB40, PB100, PB750 & PB1500 – Cyanoacrylate Structural Adhesives
These are the high strength adhesives used when you bond your fossils back together. Each adhesive has a different thickness (viscosity/centipoises); the higher the number, the thicker the adhesive. You need a strong adhesive to make up the difference of error between the two opposing surfaces you intend to bond together.
Products | Viscosity | Use |
BP40 | Low viscosity: 40 maPa*s | For microcracks |
BP100 | Medium viscosity: 100 mPas*s | 0,015 mm gap filling |
BP750 | High viscosity: 1,00 mPa*s | 0,050 mm gap filling |
BP1500 | Very high viscosity: 2,50 mPa*s | 0,250 mm gap filling, still flowable |
PB4540 – JURASSIC GEL Cyanoacrylate Adhesive
This thick, gel adhesive was designed to bridge serious gaps where serious strenght is needed. It permits to achieve a surface insensitive curing within 15.
Thread Locking
Vibration may cause such problems as self-loosening of threads. By applying the Cyberbond « T » series, this problem is solved. Cyberbond maintains the on-torque given on a thread, which prevents the self-loosening process. At the same time, Cyberbond fills the voids in the threads, seals the threads and prevents corrosion.
Liquid Cyberbond is simply applied out of the bottle or tube. After assembly, it will cure completely and fix the mating parts. The complete thread should be wetted to ensure the load is distributed along the total length of the thread. A slight thixotropic nature of the products helps prevent the product flowing away and is responsible for optimal coverage of the thread.
By selecting the correct Cyberbond grade, use of mechanical aids may not be necessary. When choosing a product, consideration should be made to the various strength classes available, together with the material of the thread itself and its design. If threads need to be disassembled (e.g. a nut is positioned in a difficult to reach area) but has to be re-opened later, then no more than a medium strength grade should be used.
