The development of mobile communications is at an unprecedented pace, and in connection with this, new gadgets appear. The consumer is increasingly purchasing touch screen communication devices, models with control buttons are being neglected, the need for them is becoming less. The concept of "touchscreen" is entering the conversation, and it is required to know what it is and how the B-7000 adhesive is used in the latest electronic mobile technology.

What is a touchscreen?

In our language, the lexeme appeared from the merger of two English words touch and skreen, which means a screen that responds to touch. Such touch monitors are found by the urban user in different places. You can withdraw money from an ATM using a sensitive screen, get a certificate, make a call to a friend on a mobile phone. All this requires actions related to the sensory perception of technology. There is a reaction to a touch on a section of the screen, a signal is received to perform a certain action in accordance with the regulations of the embedded program.

Today, any novice user can answer the question about the touchscreen. Some may consider replacing thissensitive device on the phone yourself, for which B7000 glue is used. Instructions for using this product are included in the package. It must be carefully examined before use.

Description of the substance

Chinese B-7000 is a new generation epoxy-based, gel-based adhesive used to repair damaged and replace new touch screens and display modules on mobile communication devices. The clear adhesive acts similarly to double-sided tape, but holds stronger and can be easily removed for reassembly.

B-7000 glue creates an elastic film that has anti-vibration characteristics due to its soft consistency. The layer of material is waterproof, so it can serve as a kind of waterproofing. In addition to being used in the repair of mobile devices, it is used for gluing handicraft parts, ceramics, glass, metal, wood, natural and artificial leather. Connections of fabric, stone, PVC materials, nylon, porous surfaces are strong and durable. Bonded surfaces of plastic, rubber, paper, bamboo serve reliably.

Rules for working with glue

Setting time is about six minutes for bonding on B-7000. The adhesive sealant for gluing touchscreens completely hardens after 1-2 days (24-48 hours). It is recommended to store it at an ambient temperature of 10 to 28 ºС. For proper fixation of surfaces,consider points such as:

• before using the substance, read the instructions;
• test the action on a small area;
• when using the product must have a temperature of up to 18-35 ºС;
• the surface of the part is degreased before gluing and evenly covered with glue;
• substance is squeezed out of the hole as it is spent;
• contact with skin and eyes causes irritation;
• due to its pungent odor, it is recommended to work with it in a well-ventilated area;
• if contact with mucous membranes occurs, they are washed with plenty of water;
• it is better to store the substance in places where there is no access to small children;
• It is not recommended to use glue after the expiration date.

Subtleties of application

These are the basic rules for how to use the B7000 adhesive. The instructions for use reveal some more nuances of working on connecting surfaces, although the general rules are similar to using any other glue. After applying a certain amount to the places to be glued, the product should begin to dry out a little - this way it will be possible to protect it from flowing out and falling into unnecessary niches with a slight pressure force. To avoid smudges on the screen, you need to wait about 30 seconds.

Sometimes troubles happen, and the glue still seeps beyond the boundaries of the parts to be glued. But this is removed very simply in the case of the B-7000. Adhesive sealant is easy enough to roll upfingers, it will separate from the surface and turn into a ball. At the place of gluing, you can run a thin pointed match, a toothpick or a needle, this will help remove excess substance.

Do not be afraid that the substance gets on electrical contacts, since dielectrics do not conduct current, to which the B-7000 belongs. Touchscreen adhesive will not transmit voltage to the phone case. Do not apply the product on wet surfaces, as the effectiveness of the connection is completely reduced. After connecting the planes, they are pressed down or fixed with an improvised means, for example, with an elastic band or tape, and left in this form for half an hour. After applying the adhesive, a protective cap is put on it, so you can save the remnants of the product for further use.

Dismantling the adhesive to replace the touchscreen

If you know that B-7000 glue was used to install the old module, then removing the used touchscreen will be much easier than with other similar means. For re-removal, the glass of the phone is heated to 40 ºС, and it simply rises with little effort. You need to heat up gradually, directing a stream of hot air a little to the side, so that the display glass does not crack. This property of the product is very valuable compared to factory counterparts. The glass remains intact in most cases, making it possible to reuse it to save money.

Using glue for other purposes

In every home there will always be work that requires gluing surfaces. Becauseglass glue is also a sealant, then the use of this tool is not limited and will be useful in various cases. The fact that the product is absolutely non-toxic makes it possible to use it for small repairs in the apartment, for example, replacing a small cracked glass in a window frame or kitchen cabinet door. After drying, a glazing bead or decorative rail is fixed on top.

Gluing jewelry

Often, for such delicate work, craftswomen use a common superglue, which dries quickly, but has one significant drawback - it sticks tightly to fingers that accidentally get in its way and it takes a lot of work to remove it. B-7000 Multi-Purpose Glass Adhesive is more suitable for bonding jewelry components. Its excess is easily removed by rolling or a sharp thin object from the parts. This product is used not only by craftsmen at home, but also by craftsmen in jewelry workshops.

Working with genuine leather

Strict leather belts, expensive purses, jewelry in the form of a chic necklace, playful hair clips made from the remains of colored genuine leather are successful in the market of homemade jewelry. B7000 glue is quite suitable for their manufacture. How long the leather product dries (24-28 hours) has already been indicated, and during this time other workpieces are made. The skin for gluing is prepared in advance.

If it is required to give volume to a flat sheet, it is heated over an open flame of a spirit lamp, after which the elementtakes on a curved shape. The place of gluing before processing with the adhesive composition is cleaned with sandpaper, then a thin layer of glue is applied and allowed to dry a little. After that, the glued places are pressed against each other and fixed. The product can only be fully used after 30-48 hours.

Glue of plastic and decorative clay

Unique flowers and decorations are made by craftsmen from decorative plastic or, as it is also called, clay. Thin petals are glued after treating them with acetone or another solvent. This is done so that after working with the material with your hands, there are no greasy prints left on it. The finished fixed product can be used after the above time has elapsed, due to the fact that the glue is not toxic, plastic clay jewelry, rings, earrings are allowed to be worn even by small children, they can also play with them.

An important feature of the glue is its ability to soften when heated, therefore, any decorative product can be disassembled and remade in a different form, which is very important for creative people.

Glue B7000, analogues from the group of other adhesives

A good replacement for the B-7000 environmental adhesive can be the T-7000, also designed for gluing touchscreens and mobile communication modules. It has a black color, which makes it invisible on cases made of dark material. This adhesive is resistant to high temperatures and does not disassemble when heated.

Convenient dispenser prevents excess glue from escaping. Bonding instructions:

• thoroughly clean the surfaces to be glued, the agent is applied to one of the surfaces;
• after some waiting, the surfaces are pressed and held, then after a day, or better two, the product is allowed to be used;
• the joint of the joint does not need to be preheated with lamps or a hair dryer, gluing will occur on its own after the composition has hardened.

In addition to this version of the glue, B-8000 glue and double-sided adhesive tape for gluing touchscreens can be considered analogues.

How to remove glue from leather?

Some people, after getting glue on the surface of their hands, try to apply mechanical action to get rid of sticky deposits, use sharp objects that easily injure the skin. Some take sandpaper, nail files, knives. On sale there is a tool "Anticle", than it will be very easy to clean the B7000 glue. Therefore, in order to avoid problems, you need to buy this drug in a hardware store before changing the touchscreen, then the need to get rid of glue residue on your hands will not be a problem.

A small amount of glue is applied to the stain and left for a few minutes, after which the area is washed with water and washed, if it meansthe cloth. It happens that a single application does not help. In this case, the processing is repeated.

Acetone with soap remover

If the above preparations are not at hand, and the glue is fairly stuck to the skin in sufficient quantities, then some use acetone to remove stains, after which you need to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water for a long time. Instead of acetone, solvents No. 646, 647, sold in hardware stores, are used. A nail polish remover also works in the same way.

After applying a certain amount of acetone to the adhesive layer with cotton wool, you need to wait about 30 seconds, then take a sponge and wipe off the adhering layer, after lathering the place. Gradually, the glue will go away, and the treatment ends after washing in running water. If there is no remedy at hand, then you can wash off the glue in warm water with a detergent composition, dipping your hands in the solution for half an hour. The adhesive contains cyanoacrylate, which is able to dissolve in warm soapy water.

In conclusion, it should be noted that the use of B-7000 glue is effective for gluing touchscreens and mobile technology modules. Using this adhesive, repairers will get a distinct advantage in the form of ease of use, a strong connection that will remain unchanged for a long time.
