In its strive to supply the commercial transportation industry with its renowned experience in adhesives, composites and foams Dow Automotive Systems provides a comprehensive portfolio of solutions to improve the durability, corrosion improvement, light-weight and safety requirements for commercial vehicles. Major technologies available and proven within the industry are:

    Elastic and Structural Adhesives and Sealants
    Specialty Adhesives (e.g. rubber to substrate)
    Structural and acoustic cavity filling foams
    Thermal insulation foam
    Reinforcing composite resins


Now, as part of the commitment to commercial vehicle manufacturers Dow Automotive systems is launching a series of new technologies to address the market’s unmet needs. In the same time, Dow Automotive expands the elastic adhesives portfolio which has already been well received.

BETATECH PLUS™: Polyurethane based solvent free sealants with good adhesion attributes on a wide range of substrates common in construction of commercial vehicles with no/less pre-treatment requirement. It is manufactured as white, gray and black and available in various packaging options.

BETAWIPE™ Hydro 2: Improved water base activator which is ready to use, requires no mixing prior the application and has extended pot life. Developed to be used in glass bonding applications instead of a blackout primer to reduce VOC and process time, used with UNIWIPE Adhesives portfolio.

BETASEAL™ 7150: New generation of UNIWIPE Adhesive systems compatible with BETAWIPE™ Hydro 2 to meet the low VOC requirements during elastic bonding and sealing applications on commercial vehicles to meet workers safety requirements.

BETASEAL™ 7170 and ACCEL: One component polyurethane adhesive system which can be accelerated by dosing water paste as second component to enable humidity independent curing and reduce the fixture times. When warm applied it delivers a green strength to maintain the position of the bonded parts to eliminate mechanical fixation methods and tapes during the process. This adhesive system is also compatible with BETAWIPE™ Hydro 2 to meet the low VOC requirements.
