Thermoplastic polymer that, in its liquid form, consists of monomers of cyanoacrylate molecules. In the form of an acrylic resin it rapidly polymerises in the presence of water; commonly used as a fast-setting, strong adhesive.

Fast-setting, strong adhesive based on ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate polymers. Most commercial formulations also contain stabilizers, thickeners, and catalysts.The first cyanoacrylate adhesive was made in 1941, but not marketed until 1958. The glues set rapidly upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation or moisture. When cured, they form an extremely strong bond that is fairly insoluble. Cyanoacrylate adhesives have been used for gluing glass, ceramics, other hard materials, and in medical and dental applications. Some cyanoacrylate glues may lose adhesive strength with time; ultraviolet light and contact with alkaline materials (glass and some stones) will accelerate the degradation process.
