"The Loctite(R) Halogen-Free range of products has created new
opportunities in the mobile electronics market while leading to the unique
creation of environment-friendly adhesives that can be utilised for multiple
applications," notes Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Rajaram Vijayan. "The
green technology platform involved in the formulations has supported
adherence to stringent environmental regulations in the adhesives domain by
maintaining a total bromine and chlorine content of less than 1,500 parts per
million."

The environmentally-friendly, halogen free Loctite(R) products also
include cyanoacrylates, light cure cyanoacrylates, epoxies, urethanes, UV
acrylics, silicones, hot melts, two-part acrylics, and anaerobics for
different applications. These products could be used for multiple bonding
applications on metals, plastics, composites and glass. For example, this
product range has been used widely in the industry to bond, seal and assemble
a range of components including mobile phone cases, cameras, connectors,
keypads, microphones, speakers, trim, emblems, frames, screens, magnets,
latches, and batteries.

"Henkel Group leverages its expertise in the adhesive business by
investing a substantial portion of its revenues in an outstanding research
and development programme while employing unique growth strategies that are
directly aligned with market needs, end applications, and the high-end
performance market," concludes Vijayan. "Together, these factors have helped
Henkel in developing high-quality, innovative and environment-friendly
solutions for various industries."
