The use of Araldite adhesive in architecture to bond thin joints of pre-cast concrete units was pioneered by Ove Arup in Coventry cathedral and the Sydney Opera House. [4]
Acrylic elastomer is a general term for a type of synthetic rubber whose primary component is acrylic acid alkyl ester (ethyl or butyl ester). [3] Acrylic elastomer possesses characteristics of heat and oil resistance, with the ability to withstand temperatures of 170–180 °C. It is used primarily for producing oil seals and packaging related ...
Chemical structure of ethyl cyanoacrylate, the precursor to many commercial adhesives. The most common monomer is ethyl cyanoacrylate.Several related esters are known. To facilitate easy handling, a cyanoacrylate monomer is frequently formulated with an ingredient such as fumed silica to make it more viscous or gel-like.

Bill Clinton “Hillary and I mourn the passing of President Jimmy Carter and give thanks for his long, good life,” Clinton, the country's 42nd president, said in a statement on Sunday.
Modacrylic fibers are modified acrylic fibers made from acrylonitriles, but larger amounts of other polymers are added to make the copolymers. The modacrylic fibers are produced by polymerizing the components, dissolving the copolymer in acetone , pumping the solution into the column of warm air (dry-spun), and stretching while hot.
A travel expert revealed the science of why food and drinks taste different on a plane — and what he chooses to order once the beverage cart comes around.
Often, acrylate refers to esters of acrylic acid, the most common member being methyl acrylate. These acrylates contain vinyl groups .
