Norland NOA 142
Norland Optical Adhesive 142 is a clear liquid adhesive that will cure when exposed long wavelength ultraviolet light. NOA 142 is recommended for bonding for glass to glass.
Adhesion is also good to cellulose acetate butyrate. NOA 142 is cured by ultraviolet light between 315 to 395 nm. Full cure requires 6 Joules/cm². The adhesive exhibits oxygen inhibition when used as a coating. To overcome this the adhesive must be cured under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen.
