WATER-BASED ADHESIVES
Dispersion adhesives for industrial bonding
The dispersion adhesives in the range bond different materials and require different processing methods, depending on the formulation. Compare the joining surfaces, application method and service conditions; we can help you select an adhesive for your application.
01
Selection criteria
Which materials and application method determine the choice?
Start with both joining materials and their surfaces, the bond area, and the load and environment in service. The listed range includes water-based acrylic adhesives for lightweight insulation materials alongside polychloroprene dispersions with contact-bonding properties. Check whether the specific product is intended for brush, roller or spray application, and how much time is available between application and assembly.

CHOOSING BY APPLICATION
Assess application, bonding window and service load separately
For the listed 3M Fastbond 30NF, the manufacturer specifies a long bonding window, high initial tack and spray, brush or roller application. Acrylic dispersion adhesive 49, by contrast, is described for lightweight insulation materials such as felt, nonwoven fabric, glass wool and rock wool bonded to wood, metal or many plastics. 3M Fast Tack 1000NF is identified as a one-component adhesive; the manufacturer states that it performs best when at least one surface is porous. These differences affect the choice of materials and production process and must be checked for the specific product.
Also check whether you need a single adhesive or a system with an activator: the listed Fastbond 2000NF is also supplied as a base with an activator. Tell us the materials, bond area, application method and load in service so we can discuss the suitable product variant and the next step in assessing it.

QUESTIONS ABOUT DISPERSION ADHESIVES
How do acrylic and polychloroprene dispersion adhesives differ?
The specific formulation and intended uses differ. The listed acrylic dispersion adhesive 49 is described for bonding lightweight insulation materials such as glass wool, rock wool, felt, textiles and nonwoven fabric to wood, metals or many plastics. The listed Fastbond 30NF is a polychloroprene-based contact adhesive; the manufacturer's information names foams, plastics, aluminium, wood, cardboard, cork and felt among the possible joining materials. Both surfaces, the application method and the required bond strength determine the choice. A material listed for one product must not be assumed suitable for every dispersion adhesive.
How does the bonding window affect the choice of a dispersion adhesive?
The bonding window is the time in which the parts can be joined after application. For the listed Fastbond 30NF, the manufacturer states a long bonding window and high initial tack; other formulations have their own specifications. The bonding window is not the same as the time to reach full strength. Check how long application takes, when the parts will be joined and when the bond must carry a load. These details belong in the product-specific processing assessment.
Can every dispersion adhesive be processed without an activator?
No. The listed Fastbond 2000NF is also recorded as a set containing a base and an activator; an activator is listed separately as well. The range includes other dispersion adhesives with their own processing requirements, including Fastbond 30NF, Fast Tack 1000NF and acrylic adhesive 49. The number of components, application method and sequence must therefore be taken from the information for the specific product. Describe your application method and joining materials before choosing an adhesive system for the process.
What information helps with an enquiry about dispersion adhesives?
Specify both joining materials, the condition of their surfaces and the bond area. The planned application method, time between application and assembly, and the load and environment in service also matter. For Fastbond 30NF, the manufacturer states a long bonding window; acrylic adhesive 49 is primarily described for bonding lightweight insulation materials. With these details, Krückemeyer GmbH can assess the listed variants for your application and identify points that still need checking.
