The reason it doesn't get stuck in the tube is the same reason a box of doughnuts aren't hard as hockey pucks when you first open the package. For superglue to work it needs air to make it hard, just like the doughnut. The chemicals react with oxygen to change the chemical structure so it becomes hard and sticks to whatever it can. With the doughnut, the water is pulled out by the rest of the air in the room and it becomes hard. We're taught in high school chemistry that things go from HIGH-LOW. The more dramatic the diff and the easier it can move from HIGH - LOW, the faster the change will happen.
Hope this makes sense Super glue cures in the presence of hydroxyl ions in water. No water or water vapor in the tube of super glue will keep the nozzle clog free.
Because there is no water in the tube, water is necessary to start the hardening process.
Because there is no air in the tube, but if you open one and re-cap it, you admit air and it will harden eventually.
The best for those materials would be PL Premium or LePage Extreme, both available in small tube or caulk tube.
Super glue won't dry vinyl tube. You have to dry it with heat or a cloth before gluing it. -Why are you using super glue anyway ? -There are many proper vinyl adhesives that work far better .
It is not recommended to fix a bike tube using super glue. It is best to use a patch kit specifically designed for repairing bike tubes. Super glue may not provide a strong and lasting seal, and could potentially cause further damage to the tube.
Any of these types of glue need air to dry. If the tube is kept tightly capped it can't dry.
To prevent a hot glue tube from becoming stuck, always recap the tube securely after use and store it in a cool, dry place. Try to avoid leaving the tube lying flat after using it, as this can cause the glue to dry around the cap and nozzle, making it difficult to open. If the tube does become stuck, soaking it in warm, soapy water can help loosen the dried glue and make it easier to open.
You get a whole bunch of budgies, and a big tube of super glue...
Never tried that. Stick a bottle in the freezer and see.
i would suggest jet glue, or super glue, jet glue is avalible at hardware stores and super glue is available every where. Don't glue your fingers together!ANS 2 - Super glue is no god for shoe repairs ! -Use Goop Shoe Glue - in a tube, cheap, works great, available at most stores like Walmart, HD, Canadian Tire, etc
Because it has no air. It needs air to make it dry enough to be sticky.
Glue hardens when exposed to air due to a process called polymerization. When glue is squeezed from the tube, it comes in contact with air, leading to the evaporation of solvents or water present in the glue. This causes the glue molecules to come closer together and form a strong bond, resulting in hardening.
