Blooming is a common problem associated with cyanoacrylate (super glue) type adhesives. It is seen as a powdery white residue deposited on surfaces close to where the adhesive has been applied. It is particularly noticeable on dark coloured substrates and can be detrimental to the finished appearance of a bonded assembly. Find out more about Permabond here

Permabond Engineering Adhesives has introduced a high temperature resistant structural epoxy adhesive, dubbed ET5401, that will bond a wide variety of engineering materials such as composites, thermoplastics, metals and ceramic materials. Whereas, standard two-component epoxy adhesives resist temperatures of up to 80°C before they soften (resulting in joint failure), ET5401 can successfully survive 140°C continuously, and maintain its performance characteristics.
