Jean: There are many adhesive systems that "might" work well for your
application, however there some issues you need to consider to select the
"right" adhesive.
1. What is it that you are bonding to the glass?
2. Is this assembly fixtured?
3. How fast do you want the adhesive to cure?
4. If baking is required what is the max exposure temp?
5. When you say "semi rigid" what are you looking for?
impact resistance, vibration resistance, compliance,
elongation, elasticity, medium range shore D hardness etc.
6. What are you looking for in "excellant bond strength"?
sheer strength, peel strength, tensile strength etc.
7. Are there any electrical requirements?
dielectric stength, insulation resistance etc.
8. What is the min/max service and storage temp requirements?
9. etc. etc. etc.
As you can see there many factors that come into play. The better you can define
the requirements the better the proper adhesive can be selected. Companies such
as Grace, 3M, Ciba, Dow, Loctite etc. all make good products that could probably
work for you. I would contact them and discuss your application needs. As a
sidelight 3M has a nice little duo-pack system as part of their DP epoxy
adhesive series. It will bond to glass, is semi-flexible, cures fairly rapidly
and has good over all properties. The other above mentioned suppliers also carry
similar products.
