Norland Optical Adhesive 133 is clear liquid adhesive that will cure when exposed long wavelength ultraviolet light. NOA 133 is recommended for bonding for glass to glass. Adhesion is also good to cellulose acetate
butyrate. NOA 133 is cured by ultraviolet light between 320 to 450 nm. Full cure requires 6 Joules/cm 2 . The adhesive exhibits oxygen inhibition when used as a coating. To overcome this the adhesive must be cured
under an inert atmosphere, such as nitrogen. When used as a coating the liquid adhesive's temperature must be kept below 9C to prevent vaporization.
