Hot melts are mostly known as thermoplastics, unlike waterbased products, hot melts have 100% solid content. Hot melts are used because:
- It is fas setting
- It has a large bonding range
- Easily processing
PUR hot melt
Where most hot melts are thermoplastic and have their limitations in e.g. building purposes, PUR hot melts may be the better solution. PUR hot melts in general give a stronger bond on constructive materials such as wood and metal, and are farr less sensible to heat and chemicals, because PUR is reactive. Disadvantage of PUR hot melt is their price and difficult workaround.
New generation hot melt adhesives
Especially for food packaging applications, the new generation hot melt is available, with these advantages:
- non coaling
- non fuming
- less stringing
And are easy reducing adhesive consumption.
All these properties ensure endusers to realize a more efficient and cheaper production process. Hot melt Futura 1 runs on more than 90% of all food packaging applications!
