Thread-sewn perfect bindingStill need to use hot melt adhesive particlesThe only difference is the dosage and location compared to wireless adhesive packaging. The sewing thread connects the book stickers one by one, solving the root problem of loose pages in the text; But the smoothness of the book back, the fit between the spine and the cover, and the stiffness of the finished product still rely on hot melt adhesive. Simply put, lock thread is responsible for “preventing pages from falling off”, while hot melt adhesive is responsible for “shaping the book”. The two are not interchangeable.

On the actual production line, hot melt adhesive particles are mainly used in three positions:
| Comparison item | Thread-sewn perfect binding | perfect binding |
|---|---|---|
| Glue usage | Less (book stickers sewn together) | More (completely glued into books) |
| Opening hours | Moderate enough | Strict requirements, matching machine speed |
| Page drop risk | Low, adhesive only assists | High, glue is the main force |
| Suitable category | Albums, yearbooks, textbooks | Paperback book, instruction manual |
When making lock thread adhesive, priority should be given to selectingMedium to low temperature, good fluidity, and strong permeabilityEVA hot melt adhesive particles to avoid high viscosity clogging of grooves; If the hardcover book ring lining and stopper cloth are fixed, use a model with higher initial adhesion. Guangzhou Sunlife Trading (Sunlife Hot Melt Adhesive) has a mature ratio of back adhesive and side adhesive for book and magazine binding. When customers change the thread, they can adjust the melt adhesive temperature (usually 150-170 ℃) according to the thickness of the book and the machine speed to ensure stable shipment.
Q1: Can we use lockwire instead of glue and completely avoid using hot melt adhesive?
No. Lockthread only solves the connection of the inner text. Without glue applied to the book back, the finished product will become loose and the spine will have no stiffness, making it impossible to form a book.
Q2: Is it a glue problem with the missing pages of the lock book?
Most likely not. When a page falls off in a lockstitch book, first check the distance between the lockstitch needles and whether the book cover is loose. Adhesive only affects the smoothness of the book back and the fit of the cover.
Q3: Can lockwire and wireless share the same adhesive particle?
Universal book and magazine adhesive particles can be shared, but it is recommended to use a separate high initial adhesion model for the fine binding lock thread, as the sealing ring liner is more stable.
Direct answer: The smaller the particles, the faster they melt, but to a certain extent, it can lead to new problems such as clumping, clogging, and carbonization. For most book binding and sealing equipment, a standard particle size of 3-5mm is the most comprehensive and optimal, and blindly pursuing small particles is a typical misconception. […]
The root cause of difficulty in sticking PET plastic film PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic film has low surface energy and high crystallinity, and is widely recognized as a difficult to stick material. Ordinary EVAhot melt adhesive pelletsThe problem of initially sticking PET but suddenly decreasing peel strength after cooling is often encountered, and the fundamental […]
What should I do if the hot melt adhesive particles are not firmly attached to the coated paper? Direct answer: The root cause of the poor adhesion of laminated paper is mostly due toLow membrane surface energy, glue not eating paper fibers, poor coordination between opening time and compressionThese three points. The surface of laminated […]
