Abstract

A two-part curable adhesive composition includes a main agent (A) containing a urethane prepolymer (a1) and a remaining polyisocyanate (a2), and a curing agent (B) containing a non-crystalline polyol compound (b1) and a polyamine compound (b2). An equivalent ratio of an isocyanate group in a raw polyisocyanate to a hydroxyl group in a crystalline polyol compound constituting the urethane prepolymer (a1) is from 2.05 to 12. An NCO group/total active hydrogen group ratio is from 0.5 to 4. An isocyanate group/hydroxyl group ratio is from 2 to 12.
