Adhesives for luxury boats
Araldite 2015 adhesives from Huntsman have been selected for designing a motor luxury high tech boat. During the designing, impacts and vibrations to which the boat would have been subjected during the navigation, because of its short length (8.5 m), immediately highlighted the need for bonding characteristics able to withstand high solicitations. After prototypes made with RenShape BM5460 (materials developed by Huntsmann itself to optimize times and costs of modeling and prototyping) and trials carried out using different combinations of adhesives, Araldite 2015 has been chosen, in particular thanks to fast application times and less pervasive odours.
