Elastomeric adhesive:
INTRODUCTION
Material having great elasticity.
Adhesive can be based on electrical properties (insulation or Maybe formulated in solvents from synthetic or naturally
conductive), chemical properties (acrylic or epoxy), curing occurring polymer
properties (thermal or UV/thermal cure) or physical
characteristics after cure (thermoplastic or thermosetting). They are noted for high peel strength and flexibility

Thermosetting adhesive ADHESIVE IN CONSCTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Cure by cross-linking polymer molecules, a process
Phenolic and Urea-formaldehyde adhesive are used in making
that strengthens by bulk adhesive and transform it plywood and particleboard
into a rubbery state to rigid state.
Elastomeric adhesive such as SBR, natural rubber and
Oncesuch a material has cured, subsequent
neoprane are used to glue floor and wood frames
heating does not add new bonds.
Thermosetting adhesives are available as either Polyvinyl acetate or starch based adhesive are commonly used
to glue gypsum board or wallpaper
one- or two- part systems.
Elastomeric or hot melt adhesive such as polyethylene are used
to install carpets

Mainly dominated by natural derived glues Automobiles: variety of elastomer based adhesives
based on starches, animal by-products and Shoes: elastomeric adhesives as well as polyester and
polyamide hot melts
sodium silicate Electrical: wide variety of synthetic adhesives such as epoxies,
phenolics, polyester, PVC plastisols, silicons, etc.
However, hot melt adhesive based on synthetic Aircraft: metal-metal construction adhesive which uses
polymers has now seen a sharp increase in adhesives alloys of epoxy, nitrile phenolic and nylon
packaging applications components
