Light lock nº1

Light lock nº1 is the first commercial light curing cyanoacrylate adhesive based on non-staining, non-lachryamatory, odourless monomer technology. 

 

The proprietary formulation exploits a novel photoinitiator system that is highly sensitive to visible and UV light. Light lock nº1 additionally functions as an odourless instant adhesive offering high bonding strength on a plethora of substrates. Dual initiation mechanisms thus guarantee the maximum degree of cure in the minimum time in any situation including shadow cure, surface cure, deep cure and cure of excess adhesive fillets as well as sealing.
