- Product Highlights
- This product compared to EVA adhesive has improved thermal stability, and stays constant in its viscosity, therefore no changes in the adhesion and in the processing quality, even by longer rests in the adhesive melting machines.
- Low consumption adhesive, with extremely low density.
- Odor, smoke and organic solvents free adhesive.
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Application Method
- Application
- For use in the nozzle, roller or other applicator system recommended working temperature.
- Temperatures above 190 °C should be avoided.
- The equipment needs to be freed from EVA hot melt and cleaned since this product is not compatible with EVA-based hot melts.
- During extended machine stops it is recommended to switch off the heating.
- Cleaning
While hot by scrapping with a spatula and remove any rests with Hot-Melt Cleaners CC19.
