Successful Surface Bonding

From Preparation to Endurance Performance

We consider not only the adhesive itself, but also the interplay between the material, the application, and the manufacturing process.

Successful bonding depends on the interplay of application methods, materials, process design, and performance requirements. The right adhesive brings all these factors together.

The Right Adhesive for Your Process

Five Factors Are Key:

1. Application
2. Materials
3. Bonding Process
4. Processing Time
5. Performance

As a manufacturer of adhesives and sandwich panels, WEISS understands how face materials, core materials, process conditions, and performance requirements interact.

Surface layers: Steel | Aluminum | FRP | HPL | Wood | PVC | Plastics
Core material: PUR/PIR | EPS | XPS | PET/PVC foam | Mineral wool | Honeycomb structure | Balsa
Adhesive technologies: PUR


Choosing the Right Adhesive System

1C-PUR

One-component polyurethane adhesives are easy to use without mixing equipment and ensure reliable bonding in various established industrial surface bonding applications.

  • Easy application
  • No mixing required
  • Less complex equipment
  • Foaming, joint-filling properties
  • Cost-effective process integration

2C-PUR

Two-component polyurethane adhesives react through the controlled mixing of two components and are ideal for controlled, reproducible industrial bonding processes.

  • Controlled and reproducible application
  • Mixing equipment required
  • Better process control
  • Controlled, uniform bond joint and higher functional strength
  • Well-suited for automated processes

3C-PUR

Three-component polyurethane adhesives enable flexible control of reactivity through the precise mixing of three components. This allows open times and pressing times to be adjusted to the requirements of different industrial bonding processes.

  • Flexible adjustment of open and pressing times
  • Adjustable reactivity and curing speed
  • High flexibility in process design
  • Precise dosing and mixing equipment required
  • Well suited for automated processes
