  • Solvent-free

Solvent-free

Adhesives are called “solvent-free” if they contain no more than 5 percent of solvent. Both water-borne dispersion adhesives and hotmelts are solvent-free.

The formulation of an adhesive depends on whether it is a dispersion adhesive or hotmelt.

Advantages
  • Little or no solvent
  • Reduction of health risks
  • Fewer occupational safety requirements
  • Flexible processing time
  • High initial strength

 

Applications
  • Automotive industry (interior fittings such as headlinings, dashboards, etc.)
  • Shoe industry (bonding of sole to upper, toecaps, inner soles)
  • Construction industry (various flooring materials)
  • Furniture industry (for decorative lamination of wood)
  • Mattress industry
  • Paper and packaging industry
  • Hygiene industry (diapers, sanitary napkins)
  • Bookbinding (spines of paperbacks)
  • Textile industry (men’s and women’s apparel)
