Aquabond Technologies Aquabond™ ABS-85 Water Soluble Adhesive and Bonding Thermoplastic
Categories: Polymer; Adhesive; Thermoplastic; Adhesives, Sealants, and Coatings

Material Notes: Description: Aquabond's water soluble thermoplastic is designed for temporary mounting of hard materials for slicing, dicing, grinding, lapping and polishing and comes in 3 different bonding temperatures that can be purchased in either stick or bulk form. All products are virtually insoluble in cold or cool water, thus providing a strong bond in the presence of aqueous cutting lubricants and coolants.

All Aquabond thermoplastic adhesives when submerged in HOT water will go to solution and not return. The use of Aquaclean 900 and ultrasonic or air agitation greatly speeds debonding and aids in producing very clean finished parts. As long as the work piece is non- hazardous, and you already have the proper approvals, the solution can be poured down the drain.

All Aquabond thermoplastic temporary adhesives come in either 100 gram bulk ingots or in 45 gram 5/8 inch diameter sticks for easy application.

Aquabond 65 is a formulation with the properties of both Aquabond 55 and Aquabond 85. It is a great all purpose product for either lapping and grinding or slicing and dicing.
