What is Automotive Adhesives And Sealants Market?
Automotive Adhesives and Sealants allow making satisfactory repairs of component that is worn, damaged, or broken thus saving the cost of buying a new component. These adhesives & sealants require relatively little heat input and no damage occurs, unlike when rivets or screws are used. Adhesives and sealants have become a key technology in the automotive industry and continue to replace welding and mechanical fasteners. In the automotive industry, for example, adhesives are used in combination with spot welding for joining trunk assemblies. This combination provides sound deadening and sealing in addition to a strong joint.
