Construction adhesive
Construction adhesive is a general-purpose adhesive used for attaching drywall, tile, molding, and fixtures to walls, ceilings, and floors.[1] It is most commonly available in tubes intended for use with a caulking gun.[2]
Properties
[edit]Adhesion to a variety of substrates allows bonding of dissimilar materials if necessary.[3] High cohesive strength is desirable.[4][5] Flexibility improves peel strength by flexing with peel stress. High elastic modulus of substrate and adhesive resists stress at the bond line.
Composition
[edit]There are multiple chemistries for construction adhesives. Common ingredients include clay, cement, acrylic resin, polyurethane monomers, styrene-butadiene rubber, hexane and other nonpolar solvents, and various initiators and functional additives.[6][7]
Standards
[edit]ASTM C557 "Standard Specification for Adhesives for Fastening Gypsum Wallboard to Wood Framing" gives requirements for construction adhesives used for attaching wallboard in building construction.[8]
