Direct answer:Not recommended. Different brands of rubber particle substrates and formula systems may not be compatible. Mixing them may result in reduced performance, while mixing them may cause the entire pot to become clogged and scrapped, or the nozzle to be blocked.Many factories try to switch between new and old suppliers in order to save time by simply mixing pots, but the losses from shutting down and cleaning the pots far exceed the saved glue. Guangzhou Sunlife Trading has listed the four most common pitfalls, which must be thoroughly examined before changing the adhesive.

| Step | Operation |
|---|---|
| 1. Deplete old adhesive | Use the old glue in the pot to the lowest level |
| 2. High temperature cleaning | Heat up and drain the residual adhesive according to the equipment instructions, and if necessary, use cleaning material to clean it again |
| 3 small batches of trial machines | Run the new adhesive for half an hour to confirm that there are no flocs and the bonding meets the standard |
| 4. Record parameters | Record the applicable temperature and machine speed of the new adhesive to form a work instruction |
Q: Can different models of the same brand be mixed?
Short term transition between adjacent models of the same system is generally feasible, but it is also recommended to consult the manufacturer first. Sunlife hot melt adhesive customers can directly contact the technical team to confirm compatibility.
Q: How can I save someone who has already mixed the pot and produced fluff?
Stop the machine to drain, clean the pot at high temperature, and replace the filter screen. Don’t expect to continue adding new glue to ‘dilute’ it back.
Summary: Changing suppliers does not save the step of cleaning the pot. It is necessary to first deplete the pot, then clean it, and finally test the machine, so that you can switch with peace of mind and have someone responsible for any problems.
In our industry, it is crucial for EVA hot melt adhesive to handle packaging materials correctly – they must be removable and should not damage the finished product, production process, or environment during recycling.
