    Henkel Adhesive Technologies recently partnered with Boeing to develop Loctite EA 9365FST, a new two-component epoxy adhesive that reinforces and bonds thermoplastics and thermoset substrates and acts as a matrix on fiberglass resin to strengthen the thin walls of thermoplastic components
    .
    Developed for aircraft interiors, the adhesive is halogen and antimony free, meets industry flame retardancy, smoke density and toxicity (FST) requirements, complies with global REACH and EH&S standards, and complies with Boeing Process Specification BAC 5568

    .

    Loctite EA 9365FST cures in just 2 hours at 70°C (158°F) and 7 days at room temperature
    .
    The adhesive has good mechanical properties for bonding properly treated thermoplastics and thermosets to a range of other substrates

    .
    This user-friendly epoxy offers a good balance of adhesion properties and FST compliance

    .
    The product is designed to not yellow over time, can be applied, provides good color performance, and has lower light transmission compared to older adhesive formulations

    .

    When used as a matrix resin, Loctite EA 9365FST readily wets fiberglass, reinforcing thermoplastic thin-walled components for enhanced structural support in interior applications including siding, ceilings and floors; cabin and engine room storage; galleys; lavatories and seats
    .
    The product is available worldwide and is targeted for commercial aerospace, defense and rail applications

    .

    "Loctite EA 9365FST is a high-tech, FR and FST compliant technology that expands Henkel's already strong portfolio of paste adhesives," explains William Smoot, Technical Account Manager for Henkel's Adhesive Technologies business.
    Addresses the need for critical flame retardant, toxic and smoke suppression adhesives for cabin interiors by Boeing and the entire aerospace and rail industry

    .
    Product safety and sustainability are increasingly important

    .
    This product is sustainable and REACH compliant, no halogens or other harmful chemicals
