These two following conditions are needed for proper cure:
a. Metal ionization: Contact with metal ions, especially those of the active materials.
b. Absence of oxygen or air: Oxygen is an inhibitor which prevents the anaerobic adhesive from setting up (solidified) while in storage. When oxygen is deprived, such as by the screwing of the nut onto the bolt or mating of the flanged parts, then the adhesive will cure up.
A list of the active materials is on the site.
