Bostik Born2Bond Primer 30ml

Bostik Born2Bond Primer 30ml m for low energy surfaces

Bostik Born2Bond Primer 30ml is a transparent, liquid adhesion primer specifically designed to pre-treat polyolefins and other low surface tension materials so that cyanoacrylate adhesives adhere well to them. This Bostik Primer for cyanoacrylate adhesives acts as an accelerant and improves adhesion to difficult to bond substrates such as PE, PP and Teflon.

What Bostik Born2Bond Primer to use for?

Bostik's Born2Bond Primer is used as a surface pretreatment when bonding low surface tension materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, PTFE and some thermoplastic rubbers. Also, this Bostik Primer for adhesive can serve as an additional treatment to mechanical methods (such as corona, laser etching) to improve adhesion.

Applications of Born2Bond Primer at a glance:

• Pretreatment of PE, PP, PTFE and low-energy plastics
• Reinforcement of adhesion on difficult substrates
• Use in combination with other surface treatments
• Suitable for indoor use where low-surface materials are present

Here's how to use Born2Bond Primer for optimal results

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and grease-free. Apply the primer with a brush or cloth in a thin layer, without overuse. Allow the solvent to evaporate completely so the surface is dry (usually within 30 seconds). Then the cyanoacrylate adhesive can be applied, preferably within 2 hours. Assemble and clamp the parts until the adhesive has fixture.

Benefits Bostik Born2Bond Primer are:

• Improves adhesion to plastics with low surface tension
• Acts as an accelerator for cyanoacrylate bonding
• Dries quickly (typically within 30 seconds)
• Low viscosity, penetrates surfaces well
• Allows subsequent absorption of adhesive within 2 hours
