TENSOL 12 Acrylic Adhesive, 50ml Bottle/Perspex Bonding Glue Cement

Product Information

applying the adhesive and assembling the parts. Dispense the adhesive from a small polythene bottle An alternative to a vice is a set of G-Cramps. These spread the pressure across the surfaces being joined, in much the same way as a vice. Notice the wood lengths that protect the ‘plastic’ and evenly distribute the pressure from the clamps. Liquid solvent is applied using a brush or a syringe (often supplied with the glue). As it is a liquid, it is drawn along joints and surfaces through a process called capillary action. Care must be taken, as the glue damages exposed surfaces (as it melts the surfaces of the materials forming a ‘weld joint’).

perspex together permanently. Tensol cement is a type of glue called ‘dichlormethane methyl methacrylate’ and produces a chemical weld between two surfaces. The glue is applied to the surfaces to be glued and they are pressed together. They should be clamped for 24 hours and this gives a permanent joint.

only be done at least one hour after the adhesive has set. Non-thermoformed components can be heated The bonds obtained using Tensol 70 are of approximately the same strength as the acrylic sheet. Typical

shrinks on curing allowance must be made for this when making butt joints and fillet joints. When bonding of the Part A. The Part A is a viscous mixture of acrylic polymer dissolved in monomer. The Part B is adissolved in solvent for the bonding of acrylic sheet for interior use only. Tensol 12 hardens as the solvent

sheet can be used if it is suitably annealed prior to bonding. Tensol 12 must not be used with Perspex ME, SW or AG grades and is not suitable for laminating sheets. Typical bond strengths are 24 MPa for a cold

It is versatile, single part cement suitable for general fabrication work which does not need high bond strength, (usually for internal applications). ANGLOSOL CEMENT 1200 is suitable for joining items made from ‘Diakon’ acrylic polymers as well as cast acrylic (Perspex). edge to face the edge should have a 10o chamfer to allow a sufficient quantity of adhesive into the joint. Tensol 70 is designed for bonding cast acrylic sheet. It will also bond extruded acrylic sheet, but will cause
