Bubbles are hard to form! Polymer adhesion boasts about 2 to 3 times the strength compared to solvent adhesion!
There are two methods for bonding acrylic resin: "polymer adhesion" and "solvent adhesion." Solvent adhesion is the more common bonding method, but the main difference in performance is strength. Polymer adhesion boasts about 2 to 3 times the strength compared to solvent adhesion. Transparency is the same for both polymer and solvent adhesion. However, polymer adhesion is less likely to trap bubbles, making it suitable for products where appearance is important. On the other hand, solvent adhesion has advantages in terms of cost and delivery time. There are differences depending on the thickness of the board, but for example, creating a 1m square aquarium using polymer adhesion costs about three times more than using solvent adhesion. Regarding delivery time, polymer adhesion requires about 24 hours for preparation and adhesive curing before bonding. Including finishing processes after bonding, it takes about one week in total. This is approximately three times the duration of solvent adhesion. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
Founded over 60 years ago, Shinshi Co., Ltd. is a pioneer in plastic (resin) sheet processing, possessing the technology to consistently perform bending, cutting, grinding, adhering, and polishing. It is one of the few companies in the acrylic processing industry that has both molding technology and cutting and bonding technology, collaborating from rough sketches before they are drafted. The range of services includes large molded products (one of the largest in the industry for vacuum forming, press forming, and air pressure forming) to secondary processing (cutting, bonding, surface treatment, etc.). In the aquarium industry, since the use of acrylic panels, we have collaborated with Mitsubishi Rayon (Hishiko) for many years to produce acrylic panels for aquariums both domestically and globally, accumulating a wealth of achievements. We have also been manufacturing three-dimensional molded signs and components for amusement devices by combining screen printing and molding for many years. Other products include medical devices, electronic equipment, construction materials, objects, and spatial displays. For inquiries regarding prototyping, small lots, mass production, short delivery times, and low costs, please consult Shinshi, which has abundant processing technology.
