Description
Crestomer 1153PA is a two part, pre-accelerated, highly thixotropic structural adhesive based on unsaturated urethane
acrylate in a styrene monomer. It has a long open time of 90 minutes. It is used in many structural composite applications and
has excellent adhesion to FRP laminates, core materials, wood and some metals. Due to its excellent adhesion to a wide
range of materials, 1153PA can also be used as a general purpose adhesive. It can be used for bonding diesel tanks, contour
joints in FRP components, to build up damaged areas and to bond “green” FRP.
