Real Life Case Study on Optical Assembly Application with LIGO

Sept. 24, 2017
Since 1976, Master Bond has collaborated with universities, national laboratories and other research institutions to create innovative adhesive compounds meeting their specific application requirements. As a result, Master Bond products are cited in over 300 research articles published in peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Since 1976, Master Bond has collaborated with universities, national laboratories and other research institutions to create innovative adhesive compounds meeting their specific application requirements. As a result, Master Bond products are cited in over 300 research articles published in peer-reviewed scientific journals. They are also cited in over 800 US and international patents. Here are the most interesting cases of applications in research labs and commercial use.

Master Bond EP30-2 epoxy was qualified for use in critical Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory ( LIGO) bonding applications. The main applications involved bonding prism elements, and bonding acoustical dampeners to optical components.
