In comparison to conventional polyurethane adhesives, the new product is said to maintain the same open time but reduce the handling time from 2h30 to 45 minutes. Andrios de Souza, Lord’s sales supervisor said tha, “Due to the much faster cure curve, LORD Fusor 2001/2003 NG provides a considerable increase in productivity. â€This characteristic meets one of the main requests of the automakers, the goal of the company’s new adhesive. The manufacturer says that, “It is the ideal product for bonding bumpers, ceilings and panels, among other composites parts present in buses, trucks and agricultural vehicles.â€
From the point of view of application, Lord Fusor 2001/2003 NG is identical to other polyurethane based adhesives produced by Lord. The company explained that, “It has the same viscosity as the previous generation. Thus, the user does not have to make any changes to use this new formulation.â€
