Abstract
An anchoring adhesive includes effective amounts of an isocyanurate compound and a vinyl ester compound that react and cure to form a composition having high compressive strength, high tensile strength and low shrinkage. The anchoring adhesive can be used to firmly bond anchor pins to boreholes in concrete, steel, wood, and other substrates.
Claims18
A method of binding an anchor pin to a borehole formed in a substrate, comprising the steps of:
- placing a cartridge, slug or package of anchoring adhesive in the borehole, the anchoring adhesive including a first part A and a second part B separate from each other and present in separate capsules;
- wherein the first part A and the second part B are present in a weight ratio of about 1:4 to 40:1;
- driving an anchor pin into the borehole, rupturing the capsules and causing the first part A and the second part B to mix together;
- and chemically reacting the first part A and the second part B in a space between the anchor pin and an inner surface of the borehole, forming a strong adhesive bond between the anchor pin and the inner surface of the borehole;
- wherein the first part A prior to the chemical reaction comprises an isocyanurate compound and a vinyl ester compound in combination and the second part B comprises a free radical initiator, and the chemical reaction comprises reacting the isocyanurate compound with the vinyl ester compound;
- wherein the first part A comprises about 1-30% by weight of the isocyanurate compound, about 3-50% by weight of the vinyl ester compound, zero to about 40% by weight of one or more additional monomers, and about 20-70% by weight of one or more fillers;
- wherein the adhesive bond exhibits an adhesive tensile strength of at least about 1500 psi, a compressive strength of at least about 10,000 psi, and shrinkage not greater than about 1.6%.

A method of binding an anchor pin to a borehole formed in a substrate, comprising the steps of:
- placing a cartridge, slug or package of anchoring adhesive in a borehole, the anchoring adhesive comprising a first part A and a second part B present in a weight ratio of about 1:2 to about 20:1;
- driving an anchor pin into the borehole, causing the first part A and the second part B to mix together;
- and chemically reacting the first part A and the second part B in a space between the anchor pin and the inner surface of the borehole, forming a strong adhesive bond between the anchor pin and the inner surface of the borehole;
- wherein the first part A prior to the chemical reaction comprises an isocyanurate compound selected from the group consisting of isocyanurate acrylates, isocyanurate diacrylates, isocyanurate triacrylates, and combinations thereof, in combination with a vinyl ester compound, and the chemical reaction comprises reacting the isocyanurate compound with the vinyl ester compound;
- the second part B comprising a free radical initiator selected from the group consisting of peroxide compounds, tertiary amine compounds, aldehyde amine compounds, organic sulfonyl chlorides, and combinations thereof;
- wherein the first part A comprises about 1-30% by weight of the isocyanurate compound, about 3-50% by weight of the vinyl ester compound, zero to about 40% by weight of one or more additional monomers, and about 20-70% by weight of one or more fillers, and the adhesive bond exhibits an adhesive tensile strength of at least about 1500 psi, a compressive strength of at least 10,000 psi, and shrinkage not greater than about 1.6%.
