Bonding polymer products can be a real challenge, since they are rather difficult to handle with this type of processing. It is much easier to twist them with bolts or solder them, but in some cases this type of connection is unacceptable and you have to look for alternative options... Clay "Moment Crystal" is currently one of the leaders in this matter.
It contains special substances that improve the adhesive properties and allow even the most slippery materials to stick to each other. You won't be able to use this adhesive for polyethylene and polypropylene, but otherwise it will work well for any composite polymers.
Each substance receives its properties from the interaction of its constituent components. Each glue is a mixture of a large number of polyatomic chemical compounds that are processed in a specific way to form a finished product.
Transparent glue "Moment Crystal" consists of:
The structure of a substance is very complex, and the preparation method requires careful creation of the conditions necessary for interaction. So it is not possible to make such glue on your own at home. The glue got its name for its crystallizing properties after solidification. It forms a very strong adhesive seam, which is not subject to the influence of most destructive factors. It will often be much easier to break the piece elsewhere than at the seam.
Universal glue "Moment Crystal" can be purchased in the store building materials and in many supermarkets. It is easy to find by its gray packaging. The material will cost a little more than the standard model, because it has additional properties. But it can also be used to join cardboard, rubber, ceramics, metal, wood, glass, paper, cork, foam rubber.
The substance is not suitable only for products in direct contact with food. You also need to take precautions when working with it. If some of the glue gets on your skin, wash it off immediately with plenty of warm water.
If the substance gets into the eyes, immediately consult a doctor. Inhalation of glue vapors causes hallucinations, dizziness, and sometimes nausea and vomiting. And getting the substance inside digestive system can be fatal. Therefore, you need to keep the glue out of the reach of children and pets.
Before buying, it is worth making sure that the glue is really suitable for the intended operation. The properties of the substance can be read below in the form of a detailed list with a description:
The Moment Crystal glue is packed in 30 and 125 milliliter tubes. In this case, there are options for completing a show box or a blister card. This does not in any way affect the safety, so you should only choose based on the convenience of work. Both types of packaging are equally found in stores, so you won't have to search for a long time. The type of packaging has little or no effect on the price.
Instructions for using Moment Crystal glue are given directly on the package. The most important thing to know is that both surfaces must be cleaned and degreased before starting work. The glue is applied on both sides, after which it should be infused for 15 minutes in the open air. The first 5-7 seconds after connecting the parts, they need to be squeezed with maximum effort. The repaired item is ready for use in a day.
According to reviews about the Moment Crystal glue, the life cycle of items repaired with it will be less than that of the substance itself. It is practically indestructible, incredibly reliable and durable. The quality is fully consistent with that declared by the manufacturer. In every house, it is worth keeping a few tubes of glue just in case, so that if necessary, you can quickly fix a broken item.
The price of Moment Crystal glue is, respectively, 60 and 240 rubles for a large and small package. Slight fluctuations around the indicated value are possible.
At home universal glue Moment Crystal is irreplaceable. It helps to glue the most different materials from ceramics to rubber. But the main advantage of this tool is that the traces of gluing are almost invisible. The composition is deservedly popular - it has high quality and excellent performance properties.
The adhesive has a complex chemical composition, created using the latest technology, which determines its basic properties. This is a product that allows you to form a seam of high strength, resistant to aggressive influences (including mechanical).
The product includes the following main components:
Thanks to stabilizers, the adhesive is highly resistant to moisture. As it hardens, the adhesive layer crystallizes, which increases the strength of the joined joints several times.
The products are packed in tubes of 125 ml and 30 ml. You can also buy glue in cans of 750 ml and cans of 10 liters. The latter option is especially convenient if large volumes of repair work are planned.
Polyurethane adhesive is capable of bonding tough and soft materials from polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride and other types of synthetic polymer products. It can also be used for bonding wood materials, natural plant cork, acrylic resin organic glass, metal, ceramic and porcelain, rubber, paper and cardboard.
Basic technical and performance characteristics product:
A feature of the glue is the restoration of its required properties after freezing. It is able to regain its original consistency at room temperature.
The Moment Crystal universal gel can dry out, crystallize prematurely and become unusable only if the package is not sealed. Storage of the product includes average temperature from -20 to +30 degrees for 24 months.
There are two main limitations in the use of glue:
The adhesive, having maximum adhesion, sets instantly, because the composition is recognized as the highest quality and most durable among analogues. However, before use, as stated in the product description, it is necessary to prepare the surfaces to be joined. If it is metal, it should be cleaned of scale, rust, dust and dirt. After that, it is advisable to grind the coating with any abrasive and wipe it off, removing small particles. Then you can degrease the material with acetone or gasoline.
The composition is applied in an even layer only on dry clean surfaces and left until a thin but noticeable film forms on them (for 20-25 minutes). With high porosity of the processed products, the glue can be absorbed well, so it will have to be applied again.
Before bonding the coatings, make sure that the transparent film is in the correct consistency. If it does not stick to your hands, then you can connect the sections. This must be done quickly, with strong pressure - the strength of the seam depends on it. The closure should be uniform over the entire surface area so that air bubbles do not form.
For maximum strength, it is not the duration of the pressure that is important, but its strength, therefore, the gluing must be done as carefully as possible. It is worth pressing the surface for 5-7 seconds. After that, it will no longer be possible to make the adjustment. To create optimal uniform pressure during gluing, professional craftsmen recommend using an ordinary rolling pin or bottle. You can use the product after repair a day later, when the polymerization of the adhesive is completely completed.
Usually the glue does not stain, but sometimes it is necessary to remove the remnants accidentally hitting the surface. This must be done quickly. Fresh dirt can be removed with a clean finger. Dried stains can be removed with gasoline or acetone (with the exception of fabrics that have to be taken to dry cleaning).
When using the product, do not forget that the product is flammable, therefore, all gluing work should not be carried out near sources of fire. It is also desirable to provide maximum ventilation in the room.
Adhesive fumes in some cases can cause an allergic reaction, dizziness, bouts of nausea and vomiting in people with hypersensitivity. It is unacceptable that the product gets on the skin and mucous membranes of the eyes.
In case of accidental contact of the substance on open parts of the body, immediately rinse them with plenty of warm running water.
In addition to the universal glue, the line of Moment products is represented by other demanded formulations.
Today, judging by the reviews, the Moment universal waterproof glue from the manufacturer Henkel is in the greatest demand. If stored properly, it can be used for several years. However, he does not lose his valuable qualities. The product has a low cost, sticks together almost everything (including natural and artificial leather). The glue has only one drawback - a pungent odor, which is explained by the presence of acetone and other active components in the composition, therefore it is advisable to work with the agent with open windows.
How to make sure that the glue does not flow out of the tube uncontrollably, see the next video.
