Abstract
Abstract Novel, improved adhesive compositions curable at ambient temperature to form adhesive bonds between opaque, impervious, substrates without external application of heat, light or other radiation. The adhesive compositions of this invention comprise one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, a source of free radicals, and an activator comprising an azine dye material or the reaction product of an azine dye material with a reducing agent.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
169 words
A two part adhesive composition curable on combination at room temperature to provide a cured adhesive composition, one part of the composition being a polymerizable adhesive part comprising a source of free radicals and an ethylenically unsaturated monomer selected from the group consisting of diacrylates or dimethacrylates of mono, di, tri or tetraethylene glycol, trimethacrylates from trihydric alcohols, hydroxy and glycidyl terminated esters of acrylic and methacrylic acid and reaction products of these having two or more acrylate or methacrylate terminal groups, acrylates and methacrylates derived from epoxy resins and, mixtures of these monomers, the other part being an activator part and comprising an azine dye material which can be reacted with a reducing agent to provide a product capable of initiating curing of the first part and where said azine dye material is selected from the group consisting of: ##STR3## or mixtures of these and where said activator further includes a promoter selected from the group consisting of sulfur containing compounds, transition metal compounds and mixtures of these.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 13
Dependent Claim
93 words
A method of adhesively bonding two air-impervious substrates at ambient temperature which comprises the steps of (a) applying an activator part of claim 1 to a surface of one or both of the substrates, (b) allowing the applied activator part to dry, (c) applying the polymerizable adhesive part of claim 1 to one of the surfaces carrying the applied activator, (d) pressing the substrates together with the polymerizable and activator compositions in intimate contact with exclusion of air and (e) allowing polymerization of the monomer to form and adhesive bond between the surfaces.
