Did you know about Loctite and touch screens?

Loctite plays a crucial role in the development and production of touch screen panel technology in popular electronic equipment. Liquid clear adhesive is used in the manufacture of smart phones and tablets. It provides an effective and advanced alternative to previous adhesives that were longer drying and could give a yellow tint to the screens.

Loctite is used to bond the main display and the protective cover or lens to the touch panel. With pin-point precision, it joins the surfaces together, eliminating any air gaps. It includes an anti-reflective, anti-smudge and anti-glare coating to improve the consumer's all important viewing experience. As visibility is so much better, the need for backlighting diminishes and the battery life is extended. Loctite has a long-lasting durability and scratch-resistant formula that can withstand higher temperatures and condensation.
