DELO Industrial Adhesives has increased the intensity of its LED area lamps for light-curing adhesives. The upgrade is now available for the 400nm variants of the DELOLUX 20 and the DELOLUX 202. Thus, both lamps nearly double their intensity and now reach up to 600mW/cm².

A metal adhesive, designed for bonding tasks in electric motors, has been released by DELO. Suitable for use at temperatures of up to 180°C, the DELO-ML DB154 is claimed to achieve more than twice the shear strength values of other methacrylates, which experience a power drop at temperatures above +150°C. According to the company, the adhesive retains its strength even at frequent contact with gear oil, motor oil and gasoline. 

It is well known that stainless steel is difficult to bond, and durable bonded connections are often only enabled through pretreatment. DELO Industrial Adhesives and the Ulm University of Applied Sciences have recently discovered that laser-pretreated stainless steel bondings are nearly as durable as after Sandblasting And COating (SACO) pretreatment.

A range of structural adhesives has been added to DELO's existing product portfolio. Boasting a shear strength of 12 MPa at temperatures up to +220 °C, the adhesives have been specifically designed for when components due to be bonded are exposed to high temperatures. DELO claim that the adhesives approximate a gain of 50% compared to established products, as many adhesives exhibit a strong performance drop at temperatures above +150 °C.

Providing reliable transmission of electrical signals, the anisotropic conductive DELOMONOPOX AC245 adhesive has been introduced by DELO Industrial Adhesives. Suitable for the reliable bonding of RFID chips and antennas, it offers high long-term die shear strength and enables efficient production as it can be jetted.

The technology group SCHOTT and DELO Industrial Adhesives collaborate in the development of an unbreakable glass cover composite for vehicle displays, thus providing for improved road safety. A high-tech adhesive bonds the display to the special glass cover, satisfying all safety requirements imposed by the automotive industry and protect occupants of vehicles against cutting injuries.
