β¦ Synopsis
Henkel Corporation has introduced the Loctite 7700
Handheld LED Light Source. This is a high-powered, portable curing system that is capable of curing many UV/visible light curing adhesives in seconds.
The device features a patentpending LED curing technology and has an output of 500 mW/cm 2 at a wavelength of 405 nm. The unit is said to be particularly useful for applications in crowded or hard-to-reach areas. It may be powered using rechargeable batteries, or connected to an AC adapter.
The LED technology allows instant on/off performance, and a consistent light output. The highly focused spectral output virtually eliminates overheated assemblies, and minimizes the amount of irradiated ultraviolet energy, to minimize workplace exposure concerns.

## Abstract A photopolymerizable urethane acrylate (UA) adhesive was cured using two different sources: a conventional UVβlamp and a UVβemitting light emitting diode (LED). Moisture uptake in cured specimens was characterized by immersion in deionized water at 21.8, 30, 37.5, and 45Β°C for a period
