The role of spray adhesive in automobile manufacturing
2020-12-22
Spray adhesive bonding and sealing serves a dual purpose in automobiles, effectively addressing three types of leaks (water, air, and oil). Spray adhesive simplifies the automotive production process, saves materials, and enhances component strength, particularly in terms of shock resistance and heat insulation, corrosion prevention, rust prevention, leak prevention, loosening prevention, noise reduction, weight reduction, comfort, and safety. It has special effects and has become an indispensable material in modern automotive production.
The following are the specific construction steps:
1. Pre-treatment
Before applying the adhesive, the bonding surfaces must be pre-treated. Remove oil, water, rust, and dust from the joint surfaces. Rust can be removed from metal surfaces using sandpaper, wire brushes, or other rust removers to avoid affecting the adhesion of the spray adhesive.
2. Adhesive
The spray adhesive can be applied directly to the bonding surface or applied with a spatula or brush. The adhesive should be applied continuously and evenly. The coating thickness depends on the processing accuracy, flatness, and gap size of the bonding surface.
3. Drying
Solvent-based liquid spray adhesives require drying; otherwise, the solvent will gradually evaporate between the bonding surfaces, causing the adhesive layer to shrink and produce bubbles, thereby reducing the sealing performance. The drying time for adhesive and dry peel adhesives is usually 2 to 3 minutes; for non-dry and semi-dry viscoelastic adhesives, bonding and tightening can be done within 3 to 6 minutes; while silicone spray adhesives do not require solvents and therefore do not need to be dried.
4. Tight Connection
The tightening method for liquid spray adhesives is the same as for solid gaskets. When tightening, the force must be even and appropriate, and the sealing surface must not move.
5. Post-Cleaning
Clean up excess and dripping adhesive.
These are the specific construction steps for spray adhesive. For the spray adhesive to work, it is necessary to first ensure that the purchased spray adhesive has a quality guarantee and to pay attention to the correct construction methods and steps to ensure that the spray adhesive performs its normal function. This is the role of spray adhesive in automotive production.
