>Dear rp-ml:

>A new hybrid cyanoacrylate from Loctite combines the advantages of
>light-curing and instant adhesives. It overcomes many of the limitations
of
>light-curing and cyanoacrylate technologies, and offers fixture and cure
>times of less than 5 seconds when exposed to low or medium-intensity light
>sources. It cures tack-free without the use of potentially dangerous
>accelerators. The adhesive has a secondary moisture-cure mechanism that
>allows it to cure completely in shadowed areas where light can't reach.
>Loctite has two versions currently available: 4302 is a low-viscosity
>version for close-fitting parts and 4303 is a medium-viscosity adhesive
that
>fills larger gaps. Both are said to be ideal for medical device assembly
>and general industrial applications.
>
>Has anybody tried these yet for bonding of stereolithography models?
>And if so, how does the bond strength compare to other UV-activated
>adhesives?
