| Résumé : |
For years, pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) have been creating new opportunities for improved production processes in the automotive and transportation markets. According to the Adhesive and Sealant Council Inc., one of the first uses of acrylic PSA tapes in the automotive market came about in the 1960s as a solution for replacing mechanical fasteners to attach vehicle trim, thus improving corrosion resistance.
In the decade that followed, the association notes that acrylic adhesives were being used instead of mechanical fasteners in wire tacking, allowing for fewer parts needed for assembly; in the 1980s, hot-melt adhesives were replacing screws in interior automotive plastic bonding applications and UV-curable adhesives took the place of fasteners in headlamp assembly.
Innovations like these continued throughout the 1990s and 2000s. Today, PSAs are found from bumper to bumper in automotive assembly eliminating holes that can allow moisture or liquids to enter a vehicle ; as sources for noise dampening and vibration reduction ; and adhering weather-stripping materials or interior vehicle components like dashboards, glass, mirrors, fabric, carpet, and more. |

- Benefits of PSAs in transportation applications
- New technology brings opportunities
- Proper selection : Substrate considerations - Environmental exposure - Required adhesion level
- The future of PSAs
- FIGURES : 1. From adhering interior trim to fabricated rubber gaskets and seals, pressure-sensitive adhesive are used in numerous places throughout RV, marine, and automotive applications - 2. To test required PSA, adhesion level, three common test methods are used : peel adhesion, quick tack and shear adhesion/cohesion - 3. A PSA's composition consists of four key parts : adhesive, carrier, release coating, and liner - 4. Design to withstand extremely high-temperature applications, such has automotive under-the-hood applications, high-temperature acrylic PSA's bring added value to production assembly in the automative and transportation market |
