Glueing/Bonding: Bonding process, outgassing.

Air-technical prerequistes for bonding procedures.

Handling of solid and liquid glues, which contain plasticizers, solvents, stabilizers, catalysts, initiators and other caustic or irritant materials demand great care. These materials inherit a high risk potential.

Studies prove that aerosols which develop during outgassing (drying) of the bond cause skin allergies. Especially areas of the skin on arms, neck, forehead, eyes and lips are affected. Different procedures during bonding as for example mixing or application increase molecular development of aerosols.

These areosols can be removed by direct exhaustion from the work atmosphere and filtered out reliably with approved air cleaning equipment.

By doing so, not only health hazards are eliminated but general risks as well:

  • Risk of fire,
  • smell nuisances,
  • unwanted impairment of sourrounding surfaces/workpieces.
