If you are a manufacturer of—or a user of—hot-melt adhesives, you are well aware that while most hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesives (HMPSAs) appear virtually identical in appearance, the specific manufacturing processes employed during their blending result in distinct sets of advantages and disadvantages. Hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesives are complex mixtures composed of SBC (Styrene-Butad...

1. Hot Melt Adhesives – Coating Methods Hot melt adhesives are 100% solids, require heating to melt, and solidify upon cooling. They are solvent‑free and cure quickly, making them ideal for high‑speed production. Roll Coating How it works: Molten adhesive is transferred to the substrate via a heated gravure or applicator roll. Coating thickness is controlled by the roll’s surface pattern. Applicat...

Acrylic resin synthesis is fundamentally a free-radical polymerization process, consisting of chain initiation, chain propagation, and chain termination, often accompanied by chain transfer throughout the reaction. For thermoplastic acrylic resins, controlling molecular weight and molecular weight distribution is critical. While increasing molecular weight improves the mechanical properties o...

Water-based acrylics and oil-based acrylics are two distinct types of acrylics. But do you know what distinguishes them? Base Water-based Acrylic: The base for water-based acrylics is water. It is an acrylic coating that utilizes water as its solvent. Oil-based Acrylic: The base for oil-based acrylics consists of acrylic resins suspended in organic solvents. Drying Time Water-based ...
