Techsil’s new low odour methyl acrylate adhesive has wide appeal 08 May 2018

Techsil has introduced a new two component high performance structural adhesive from Panacol: Penloc® GTN is an easy-to-process, methyl acrylate based, low odour adhesive that can be used in a wide variety of applications.

Penloc® GTN adheres especially well to brass, ceramics, steel, aluminium, PVC and similar materials. The performance adhesive boasts a high power transmission capability and excellent thermal stability. It is both flexible and offers superior adhesion. Compared to other methyl acrylate adhesives, it has the advantages of a low odour formation and a long processing time of 10 to 15 minutes.

To allow effective monitoring of blending quality, the two components of Penloc® GTN have different colours that, applied thinly, change to a grey, almost colourless surface as the blend cures. Penloc® GTN can be conveniently dispensed from a handy 50ml double cartridge or from drums connected to dispensing apparatus.
