Abstract: A vacuum insulated refrigerator includes a cabinet defining at least one compartment. The cabinet includes a wrapper, a liner assembly, and a trim breaker assembly coupled to the wrapper and the liner assembly. The trim breaker assembly defines a wrapper groove to receive an edge of the wrapper and at least one liner groove to receive at least one edge of the liner assembly. A wrapper light-diffusing optical fiber is disposed in the wrapper groove. The wrapper light-diffusing optical fiber is configured to diffuse light within the wrapper groove. At least one liner light-diffusing optical fiber is disposed in the at least one liner groove. The at least one liner light-diffusing optical fiber is configured to diffuse light within the at least one liner groove. A light reactive adhesive is disposed in the wrapper groove and in the at least one liner groove.

Abstract: A vacuum insulated appliance includes a cabinet defining at least one compartment. The cabinet includes a wrapper and a liner assembly. The wrapper and the liner assembly define an insulation cavity therebetween. The insulation cavity is under an at least partial vacuum. A trim breaker assembly is coupled to the wrapper and the liner assembly. The trim breaker assembly defines a wrapper groove to receive an edge of the wrapper and at least one liner groove to receive at least one edge of the liner assembly. An adhesive is disposed in the wrapper groove and the at least one liner groove, with the adhesive sealing the insulation cavity. The adhesive includes a platy additive to reduce gas permeation therethrough to maintain the at least partial vacuum in the insulation cavity.
