Teraxo Adhesives for Plastic: Redefining the Future of Bonding

In today’s fast-paced industrial world, plastics have become an indispensable part of manufacturing and production. From automotive and electronics to consumer goods and packaging, the versatility and cost-effectiveness of plastics make them a preferred choice across industries. However, bonding plastic surfaces presents unique challenges due to their smooth, non-porous nature and low surface energy. That’s where Teraxo Adhesives come into play, providing cutting-edge solutions for plastic bonding that are strong, reliable, and tailored to meet specific requirements.

Why Plastic Bonding is Challenging

Plastics such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), and polycarbonate (PC) are often difficult to bond because:

• They have low surface energy, making adhesives less likely to adhere effectively.
• They are often flexible, requiring adhesives that can accommodate dynamic stresses.
• Some types of plastics are prone to environmental stress cracking when exposed to certain chemicals or adhesives.

Teraxo’s range of adhesives addresses these challenges with precision-engineered formulations, ensuring secure bonding even for the most demanding applications.
