✦ Synopsis
Corning has introduced a new hot melt sealant that combines the instant green strength of a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) with the high performance of a cross-linked silicone sealant.
The benefits of this material can include improved productivity, increased production speed and reduced costs. HM-2510 was developed to have a lower viscosity than the current HM-2500 Assembly Sealant. This allows it to flow into deeper sections and achieve a longer working time by combining the production benefits of instant adhesion with the reliability of silicone sealants. Instant green strength also means that parts can be moved immediately from one processing step to the next.
