The term "Cyanoacrylate Adhesives" (CA) refers to acrylic resins that quickly polymerize when they come into contact with moisture, usually from the air or surfaces, resulting in a speedy and thorough cure, according to the "National Library of Medicine". When exposed to moisture, especially hydroxide ions, these resins quickly attach and bOnd to surfaces in 5 to 6 seconds, and undergo through exothermic polymerization within 60 seconds.
