3M Scotch-Weld DP8005 Structural Plastic Adhesive
At a glance
- Bonds PE and PP
- Very strong bonding
- In handy double syringe
With 3M Scotch-Weld DP8005 acrylic adhesive, you can effortlessly bond low surface energy plastics such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) without any surface preparation. These materials are often difficult to bond, which makes DP8005 a highly popular adhesive. This adhesive cures at room temperature without the need for heat or additional chemicals, eliminating complex post-processing. In addition, it offers excellent resistance to water and humidity, combined with excellent chemical resistance, resulting in durable adhesion that can withstand a wide range of applications and conditions.
Key features of 3M Scotch-Weld DP8005
- Highly suitable for bonding polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and various other materials.
- Little to no surface treatment required.
- Excellent resistance to water and humidity.
- Short working time (approx. 3 minutes).
- Cures at room temperature.
Adhesive for PP (polypropylene)
Polypropylene, often abbreviated as PP, is a fairly rigid plastic with high impact resistance and excellent chemical resistance. The material is lightweight and is commonly used for containers and jerry cans. Not every adhesive is suitable for bonding this type of plastic, but with 3M Scotch-Weld DP8005 you can easily bond PP to a variety of surfaces.
In addition to bonding PP, this acrylic adhesive is also highly suitable for bonding PE (polyethylene), HDPE, ABS, PMMA, aluminium, mild steel and galvanised steel. In short, a highly versatile adhesive. As these plastics are used in a wide range of products, you will likely need this adhesive regularly for your projects.

Open time is the period during which an applied adhesive, sealant or mortar can still be assembled, positioned or adjusted. It is usually given in minutes under specified conditions, often around 20 or 23 °C. Open time generally starts at application and may differ from the working time after mixing.
- 1 tot 10 minuten
-
Gap-filling capability describes how wide a gap or joint an adhesive or sealant can bridge, usually in millimetres (mm). The stated maximum is not necessarily the recommended adhesive layer thickness: a narrower joint may be needed to achieve good bond strength.
- 1mm tot 2mm, 2mm tot 4mm
-
Adhesive type describes the family of adhesive or sealant, such as epoxy adhesive, (methyl)methacrylate adhesive, polyurethane adhesive or polymer sealant. Its chemistry affects processing, curing, flexibility and adhesion. Products of the same type may still differ, so check the suitable substrates and application instructions.
- Acrylaatlijm
-
This property lists the substrates on which an adhesive, resin or coating can achieve strong adhesion according to the product information. The result also depends on surface preparation.
- Cleaning and degreasing: removes dirt, oil and other substances that interfere with bonding.
- Sanding or roughening: can improve adhesion when suitable for the substrate.
- Primer: required or recommended for some surfaces.
Materials such as PE, PP and PTFE are difficult to bond with many conventional adhesives and may need a specialist adhesive or pretreatment. If in doubt, test adhesion on a small area.
- Polypropyleen (PP), Polyethyleen (LDPE, HDPE), ABS, Plexiglas (PMMA), Aluminium, Verzinkt staal, Staal
