  • Dual cure epoxy adhesives
    Patent number: 9926476
    Abstract: A dual cure, all epoxy adhesive that is both photochemically and thermally curable is disclosed. The adhesive may comprise at least about 93% by weight of one or more polymerizable epoxides, a catalytic amount of a photo-acid generator (PAG) configured to induce acid-catalyzed polymerization of the polymerizable epoxide when exposed to UV or visible light, about 0.01% to about 1% by weight of a redox agent, and a catalytic amount of a thermal acid generator (TAG) configured to induce acid-catalyzed polymerization of the polymerizable epoxide in the presence of the redox agent when exposed to a temperature at or above about 70° C.
    Type: Grant
