Norland Optical Adhesive 160 is clear liquid adhesive that will cure when exposed long wavelength ultraviolet light. NOA 160 is recommended for bonding for glass to glass. Adhesion is also good to cellulose acetate butyrate. NOA 160 is cured by ultraviolet light between 315 to 395 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. This adhesive when fully cured is soft and rubbery.
