  • Publication number: 20040010111
    Abstract: Curable (meth)acrylate adhesives are formulated with aliphatic urethane (meth)acrylate resins. The resins are urethane (meth)acrylate capped polyols wherein the urethane acrylate capping is derived from isophorone diisocyanate and a hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate and the polyol is an oligomeric aliphatic diol or triol having a number average molecular weight of from about 1500 to about 3500. The hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate may be hydroxy ethyl acrylate. The polyol may be a member selected from the group consisting of polyoxypropylene triols, polyTHF diols, polycaprolactone/polyTHF block copolymers, and polycaprolactone diols. The adhesives give good adhesion to common DVD substrate materials, and display excellent corrosion resistance in dissimilar metal bonding applications.
