Main features

  • Non-Frosting Alkoxyethyl Formulation
  • Low-Odor Cyanoacrylate Bonding
  • Fast Multi-Substrate Fixturing

Product Description

Permabond® 940 Cyanoacrylate is a low-odor, non-frosting, alkoxyethyl-based cyanoacrylate adhesive engineered to improve worker comfort and maintain a clean aesthetic. This 100% reactive, single-component adhesive cures rapidly at room temperature, eliminating the unsightly white fogging (blooming) that commonly occurs with standard cyanoacrylates on hot and humid days. It is surface-insensitive and rapidly bonds a wide range of materials, including plastics, metals, elastomers, and acidic surfaces.

Key features

  • Low odor formulation: Alkoxyethyl chemistry significantly reduces irritating fumes, improving worker comfort during application.
  • Non-frosting/Non-fogging: Eliminates the white residue (blooming) adjacent to the bondline, ensuring a flawless aesthetic appearance on finished parts.
  • Fast room-temperature cure: Provides rapid fixture times (e.g., 2-5 seconds on Neoprene/NBR and 10-15 seconds on steel), eliminating the need for mixing or heat.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Applications requiring a clean, fog-free aesthetic finish
  • Environments where low-odor adhesives are necessary for worker comfort
  • Rapid bonding of plastics, metals, and elastomers
