uids. These systems provide the ability to bond to substrates such as
wood, leather, and fabrics which have been notoriously difficult sub-
strates for bonding with cyanoacrylate adhesives.
10.3.12 Modified acrylics
Modified acrylic adhesives are thermosetting systems that are also
called reactive acrylics to separate them from other acrylic resins that
are normally used in thermoplastic, pressure sensitive applications.
Thermosetting acrylic adhesives are two-part systems that provide
high shear strength to many metals and plastics as shown in Table
10.17. Acrylic structural adhesives use the same types of chemical
components in their formulation as the original anaerobic adhesive.
Modern formulations are based on crosslinked polymethyl methacry-
late grafted to vinyl terminated nitrile rubber. Carboxy terminated
rubbers, similar to those used in toughened epoxy adhesives, and ne-
oprene have also been used. Chlorosulfonated polyethylene has also
