ABOUT CYANOACRYLATES: Cyanoacrylates (CAs) have become the adhesive of choice for most hobby and household applications. High quality CAs such as MAXI-CURE, when used properly, form bonds that in many cases are stronger than the material that is being adhered. MAXI-CURE is a highly refined CA which, combined with its freshness, gives a guaranteed 2 year shelf life. CAs are reactive monomers that chemically link (polymerize) when pressed into a thin film. The very thin layer of water moisture present on most surfaces acts as an alkali, or weak base, which is the catalyst that results in bonding; however, the presence of detectable amounts of water usually degrades the performance of CAs.
