UV Cured Glass Bonding Adhesives: Higher Efficiency, Higher Profits

17 September 2018: Adhesive bonding is used for binding two surfaces together creating a smooth bond. Adhesive bonding provides an advantage of the absence of electric voltage and relatively lower bonding temperature. There is a wide range of adhesives available on the market for glass to glass bonding and for bonding glass to various other substrates. These adhesives are used widely for glass bonding and there is an array of adhesive solutions for glass bonding including silicone, polyurethane, UV cured, acrylic, and several others. Various types of glass bonding adhesives include silicone, polyurethane (PU), UV cured, acrylic, and several others.

UV Cured Adhesives Accounted for the Largest Revenue Share

The UV cured adhesives product segment registered for the major share of 40.3% in 2016 and is likely to grow further on account of high demand from the key applications such as medical devices, furniture, automotive and transportation, and electronics. UV cured adhesives are also used widely due to their high optical clarity and better resistance against yellowing, thermal shock and impact load. Moreover, these products offer low-stress points compared to other thermal and mechanical bonding methods while keeping the final product aesthetic features intact.

Companies in this field emphasize on novel product development for business expansion. For instance, DELO Industrie Klebstoffe GmbH & Co. KGaA recently launched a new light-curing acrylate adhesive product, called DELO PHOTOBOND GB4033, for applications in consumer electronics. The new product has excellent peel resistance against plastic and glass substrates and also exhibits excellent sealing properties against moistures, dust, and humidity.

The PU glass bonding adhesives segment had the second-largest revenue share followed by acrylic adhesives. Stringent rules and regulations regarding the usage of PU, as well as acrylic-based, products in the developed regions such as North America and Europe may have adverse effects on the segment expansion over the coming years. Other adhesives include modified silane, moisture curing adhesives, and polyisobutylene.

Market Overview

The glass bonding adhesives market is anticipated to reach USD 4.42 billion by 2025 growing at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2017 to 2025, predicts a report published by Grand View Research, Inc. A rise in demand for these adhesives from various end-use sectors such as automotive and transportation, construction, and furniture is expected to be the key factor driving the market development. Henkel AG & Co. KGaA; Master Bond Inc.; The 3M Company; The Dow Chemical Company; and DELO Industrie Klebstoffe GmbH & Co. KGaA are some of the prominent companies operating in the worldwide market for glass bonding adhesives.
