The development of the sandwich technique in photoelasticity necessitates a suitable cement. The results of experiments using cyanoacrylate IS 12 in cementing Perspex and Araldite are compared with the results of experiments using resorcinol formaldehyde. These show that cyanoacry/ate is much superior in strength and that it has other properties suitable for the purpose.
