The value of a one-stop shop supplier
Bostik’s solutions include:
PLIOGRIP™ Structural Adhesives provide one reliable solution for bonding plastic, glass and metal and are suitable for dissimilar substrates. They also offer primerless adhesion to low-surface energy thermoplastics.
Hybrid Silyl Modified Polymer (SMP) combine advantages of adhesives and sealants as a hybrid technology. With gravity feed capabilities, SMP allows you to use your entire supply and reduce overall material waste.
Liquid Masking replaces traditional masking tape with robotically-applied solutions to minimize material waste and labor costs, helping to streamline processes. It offers strong adhesion to heated metals and plastic substrates.
XPU™ TCA 202 is a 2K PUR designed through the acquisition of Polytec PT by Arkema that balances thermal management with high mechanical strength while maintaining flexibility, due to its high elongation properties.
Gap Fillers (1K Non-Reactive or 2K SMP) offer silicone-free protection between a battery module and cooling plate with fast processing speeds inclduing automated bead application (1K) and injection (2K).
Born2Bond™ Threadlocker Adhesives form a thermoset plastic bond between nuts and bolts, unifying the two locking device components together and protecting against vibration and corrosion.
Cure-In-Place Gasket (CIPG) solutions enable O-ring replacement for precise electronic applications with the ability to be instantly cured with UV.
Specialty Hot Melt Adhesives (Webs, Films, Powders) allow for the same advantages as standard hot melt adhesives without the need for bulk hot melt tanks and dispensing equipment. These products are designed for easy application using various equipment (laminator, scatterer, press, calender, etc.) with customizable length, width and thickness for minimal scrap.
Aquagrip® Water-Based Adhesives have ultra-low VOCs and offer long pot life and open times, enabling easy changeouts without wasting adhesive supply.
Solvent-Based Adhesives offer fast green strength and room temperature drying to increase process speeds and reduce overall production costs.
SAF & FIT Structural Adhesives provide flexibility, thixotropy and durability while easing complexities in your production steps with primerless solutions or low surface preparation. From a flexible range (400% elongation) to being hyper-structural (30% elongation), our solutions show open times from one minute to 90 minutes to fit your specific needs.
Butyl is a one-component insulating plastic primary sealant that provides excellent heat and humidity resistance to protect internal door panel structures. Its high tackiness also enables easy removal and repositioning.
Arofene™ Phenolic Resins and Adhesives are designed for automotive applications that require high durability for extreme environmental conditions including heat, chemical and water resistance alongside other specialized properties such as frictional coeffcients.
Thermelt® Low Pressure Molding (LPM) Adhesives are compatible with plastics, metals and ceramic substrates to protect electronic components. As a one-component solution that is up to 90% bio-based, no mixing is required to reduce production steps.
With a variety of solutions that span across exterior and interior automotive applications, Bostik helps you ease project management complexities so you can focus on meeting performance, processing and sustainability objectives. As the adhesive solutions segment of Arkema, we are vertically integrated to provide the materials you need to help ensure supply security.
