Rainbow Adhesives R - 196C

Rainbow Adhesives R - 196C is a high performance , fast tacking, solvent-neoprene based adhesive that exhibits high initial green strength and good to excellent heat resistance with superior cohesive strength upon dead load testing. Especially suited for rapid lamination and as a high performance adhesive, it is used for bonding leather, SBR, neoprene rubber stocks, metals, foils, foams, synthetic fabrics, synthetic rubbers, synthetic rubber foams, urethane foam, most plastics, and hard-to-adhere synthetic fabrics (such as Kevlar). Contact bonding of foam to rubber and to metal, contact bonding of automotive trunk and door gaskets, attaching decorative plastic laminates to wood used to bond molded neoprene and SBR rubber stocks to themselves.

    When To Use Solvent-Based Adhesives?
    • The performance of solvent-based adhesives is determined by the specific polymer formulation of the adhesive. To be effective, the joined materials fuse together as the polymer solvent quickly evaporates, making this an effective glue for fast-paced industries.
    • Many solvent-based adhesives are flammable and, as a result, are effective in joining rubber and plastics together because the high heat content is necessary to create flexibility and cohesion with rubber and plastics. Acrylics are a popular type of adhesive in this category and are used frequently in the automotive industry for paints and coatings. Other applications that may require solvent-based adhesives are woodworking, furniture manufacturing, and PVC piping and sheeting.
    • There are several advantages to working with solvent-based adhesives in fast-paced industries because they have a short fixing time, substantially decreasing the amount of time waiting for an application to set. Luckily, some solvent-based adhesives are not flammable, so you can still find an effective, fast setting adhesive even if you are working in a flammable environment such as a kitchen or garage.
