What issues should be considered when using EVA hot melt adhesive? Although there are various types of hot melt adhesives, there are five key factors that can affect their performance. Consider these items before applying hot melt adhesive to ensure ideal performance:
Temperature
When using EVA hot melt adhesive, ensure that it can fully wet the substrate. This will enable appropriate adhesion between the two materials.
To achieve this, set the temperature of the hot melt tank to be hot enough to reduce the viscosity of the adhesive during application. This will help the adhesive flow correctly to bond the substrate before it cools down.
Coating thickness
The adhesive thickness refers to the amount of adhesive applied to the product. Although it varies depending on the application method, it always affects the cooling rate of the adhesive. Understand the required coating thickness to ensure the cooling rate of hot melt adhesive is achieved.
Pressurization
When two substrates are bonded together, they are subjected to compression or pressure. Be careful to apply appropriate compression to the substrate to achieve ideal adhesion without affecting its properties.
Opening hours
It is necessary to consider the opening time of the adhesive during the application process. The opening time of adhesive refers to the length of time required to achieve effective bonding.
The factors that affect opening hours include:
Temperature
Matrix
Glue application amount
Base material
The substrate being bonded together. Their quality and chemical composition directly affect adhesive bonding. For example, high textured substrates allow for more mechanical adhesion, while high surface energy substrates aid in wetting.
Understanding the substrate before using adhesive will help determine:
What type of adhesive should be used
How much glue should be applied
Although these five tips can help you understand what to consider when applying EVA hot melt adhesive, choosing the right method is still a challenge.
Bookbinding is a problem that every reader needs to face, and hot melt adhesive is a widely used binding method nowadays. This method has more advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional staples and glue binding. Next, let’s explore in detail. Advantages Hot melt adhesive is a very strong glue, so bound books are very sturdy. […]
More and more manufacturers are using EVA hot melt adhesive to process books and other materials, regardless of the size of the processing plant, there will still be an upward trend in the future. This is because using this adhesive has the advantages of fast book publishing, short cycle time, beautiful appearance of books, and […]
What exactly is’ drawing ‘on the machine At the moment of glue coating or breaking, a thin wire is pulled out from the end of the sealing or gluing line, which is called “drawing” in the industry.Hot melt adhesive granulesAfter melting, it is a high viscosity hot fluid, and once the temperature, flow rate, and […]
Hot melt adhesive granules are a type of flexible adhesive. Its physical properties vary with temperature within the necessary temperature range, but its chemical properties remain unchanged. It is non-toxic and odorless, and is an energy-saving chemical product. So what are the factors that affect the bonding effect of hot melt adhesive particles? . Plate […]
