  • Patent number: 10336047
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of preventing corrosion of mating surfaces of components. The method comprising impregnating a polyester based carrier with an anaerobic acrylic adhesive to form an impregnated carrier and spraying a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive on one surface of the impregnated carrier to form an impregnated carrier having a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive layer, which is protected using a protective silicon release liner to configure a pasting surface. The pasting surface is pasted on a first component, such that pasting layer is in contact with first component. A second component is abutted to first component with the impregnated carrier there between and force is applied on first and second components such that the anaerobic acrylic adhesive oozes out from the impregnated carrier and coats both mating surfaces in absence of oxygen to commence and complete curing of anaerobic acrylic adhesive on the mating surfaces of the first and the second components.
