High-strength hot-melt adhesive - Henkel Corp.

The adhesive works well in automated solar-panel fabrication.
May 14, 2011

Terostat MS 500, a high-strength, hot-melt, modified silane adhesive, has high initial tack and immediate handling strength. It adheres to  glass, metal, and plastics without priming, and resists long-term exposure to weather, UV, and damp heat.
The adhesive is highly flexible from -20° to 100°C and compensates for differing rates of thermal expansion between substrates.
