Application of the universal glue "Moment"

There are many types of adhesives, including those that have been used for over half a century. But the relatively recently appeared glue "Moment" confidently goes on a par with them and is even better known to many people. As practice shows, it's not only about marketing moves: this chemical composition really works. Our article focuses on the use of this all-purpose adhesive.

First of all, it is worth emphasizing that there is by no means one Moment glue, it is a whole galaxy of connecting materials, each designed for a specific task.

Regardless of the specific application, they differ:

• long period of work;
• immunity to water ingress;
• excellent resistance to overheating;
• mechanical strength;
• stability of the glue line formed.

When the adhesive hardens, it does not widen or shrink (and these are the main reasons for premature joint failure). Even when a solvent or machine oil gets on the joint, the performance is fully maintained. Adhesion between surfaces occurs very quickly, there is no need to break away from usual daily activities for a long time.

But the high qualities and the popularity associated with them made Moment a constant target of counterfeiters. Nobody can guarantee the quality of their products.

Consider the most popular varieties of the universal composition.

"Classic" proved itself from the best side in the repair of various things and in the assembly of many structures, parts. An important advantage of this material is the ability to combine substances in the most bizarre combinations. The glue easily tolerates contact with water, the working temperatures of the joint are from -40 to +110 degrees.

With this composition you can:

• connect wood and leather, metal and PVC, rubber products and natural cork (in various combinations);
• glue decorative laminate and fittings to the base made of natural wood and wood-based materials;
• veneering;
• perform postforming;
• do-it-yourself panels with enhanced soundproofing properties or with special acoustic parameters;
• increase the tightness of the edges of plywood and wood products, covering them from water.

Moment glue of this modification will not help to glue styrofoam, polyethylene and polypropylene items, plasticized polyvinyl chloride items. It is unacceptable for hygienic reasons to use it to restore items in contact with food and medicinal raw materials.

Universal adhesive attractive in that it is very easy to work with it, and the seam dries quickly: surfaces treated according to all the rules can be used fully in just 24 hours after applying the composition. The developers managed to achieve such impressive properties through the use of a wide variety of components and extensive testing of preliminary samples.

In production, rosin (pure and in compounds with ethers) is added to the mixture, additives that protect against the action of solvents, rubber and polyatomic resins. If you have to build a whole house or repair a lot of things, it is advisable to buy 1 liter packaging, it is more economically profitable.

"Joiner PVA" became widespread both among woodworking professionals and home craftsmen. It is this mixture that is best suited when you need to assemble furniture or restore its integrity.

With the help of "Joiner" you can connect:

• paper;
• plywood of various thicknesses;
• plastics;
• fittings;
• textile details.

A strong chemical bond connects the desired items within 5 minutes.

Waterproof contact adhesive good because it is transparent and there are no traces during work, but a completely elastic seam is formed. Such a composition is useful when you need to combine PVC, organic glass, polystyrene. It does well with natural materials like wood, paper or metal. But polyethylene, polypropylene and all things in contact with food are prohibited. It is important to remember that this glue is not only poisonous, but also flammable, therefore it must be stored away from fire and sources of strong heat.

Wallpaper glue "Moment" divided into a number of types (for each type of wallpaper). Regardless of this, it includes special components that stop the development of molds. We can talk about certain species for a long time, but it's time to talk about more important things - practical properties.

The Moment universal glue is supplied in cans of 750 ml, in cans of 10 liters; smaller packaging - 30, 50 and 125 ml (in tubes). There is also a universal "Moment-1" 125 ml. The carpentry variety of the material is sold in a package of 3 kg, since working with furniture and wooden structures requires a significant consumption of it.

A tube with a capacity of 400 g is most often "Moment Montage Superstrong MV-70". This mixture allows you to glue wall panels, window sills, skirting boards and decorative structures of various kinds.

If there is a need to buy especially strong glue, it is better to choose "Moment 88". It easily tolerates the effects of cold and moisture, it can even combine cardboard with glass, cork with concrete or plastic with rubber. But styrofoam and individual polymeric materials cannot be glued with such a composition.

According to the reviews, the transparent universal Moment glue perfectly holds a variety of materials, including gypsum. It is actively used by the creators of all kinds of crafts and home craftsmen: thanks to inconspicuous seams, the created objects seem to be solid, sometimes it is difficult to guess that glue was used at all.

Based on the requirements of GOST, the transparent universal "Moment" will help to connect:

• skin;
• glass surfaces;
• PVC;
• wood;
• porcelain;
• plastic.

Each adhesive must be applied in a specific way. It is advisable to consider the use of the mixture "Moment Montage" - one of the most popular in construction.

• At the time of application, it is required to strongly press the surfaces to be joined to each other; it is this force, and not the duration of the pressure, that is especially important. If there is no special roller, bottles or other elongated objects can be used for pressing to ensure uniform pressure.
• Leaving the glue for storage, you need to make sure that it is hermetically sealed, and the temperature is not lower than -20 and not higher than +30 degrees. Glue that has been frozen in permissible cold will need to be mixed before use.

• Before using the mixture, it is necessary to remove fatty deposits and deposits on the treated surfaces (using gasoline or acetone) and after placing a thin layer of the substance, leave it alone for 15-20 minutes (then press).
• If you find an excess of glue, you need to wait for it to partially dry and manually collect it into a small ball, which is then thrown into the trash can. The adhesive mixture is removed from the surface of the clothes by simple washing with a standard program.
