Hot melt adhesive is a thermoplastic material – it “softens when heated and hardens when cooled” is a physical norm, not a quality issue. So for the same model, the back of the book may become sticky at 35 ° C in the summer warehouse, and it may crack and peel at -5 ° C in winter. Choosing the wrong seasonal glue, even the best binding technique is useless. Below, explain how to choose between summer glue and winter glue according to “temperature”.
The softening point and low-temperature toughness of hot melt adhesive are mainly determined by the formula. Ordinary glue is prone to two types of problems at extreme temperatures:
Sunlife is therefore equipped withSeasonal adhesiveTwo lines:Summer glue(Resistant to about 35 ℃) by improving heat resistance to withstand high temperatures;Winter glue(Resistant to about -5 ℃) by improving low-temperature toughness to resist brittle cracking, and regularlyDual season inventoryTo cope with seasonal production changes.
| Your environment | Recommend | reason |
|---|---|---|
| Southern summer, workshop without air conditioning, high-temperature warehouse/carriage | Summer glue (resistant to about 35 ℃) | Prevent the back of the book from softening, sticking, piling up, and sticking |
| Northern winter, unheated workshops, cold chain/low-temperature warehouses | Winter glue (resistant to about -5 ℃) | Prevent the glue layer from becoming brittle, flipping and cracking, and preventing loose pages |
| Stable temperature and humidity throughout the year (approximately 15-26 ℃) | Conventional universal adhesive | No need to deliberately switch seasonal formulas |
The comfortable range reference for workshop environment: temperature of 15-26 ℃ and humidity of about 50% are relatively stable; When returning to the southern sky and during the harsh winter, it is necessary to adjust the temperature accordingly, and not just rely on changing the glue to “force it”.
Someone may ask, ‘Can we use the same batch number in summer and winter?’batch number managementAngle (corresponding to Sunlife’s other seasonal adhesive list). This article is aboutSelect the model based on temperature resistanceIf your usage or storage environment crosses the temperature resistance boundary, you should use summer or winter glue instead of worrying about whether the same batch number can last for two seasons.
Q: I don’t have air conditioning in my warehouse, how can I choose in summer?
A: Prioritize summer glue (resistant to about 35 ℃), and try to store the finished product in a cool and ventilated place, avoiding direct sunlight and prolonged stacking.
Q: In winter, when the back of a book is flipped over, it cracks. Can’t it be glued?
A: First, check if the temperature control of the equipment meets the standard (temperature gun calibration), and then confirm if winter glue has been used; Low temperature brittleness is often caused by the combination of insufficient temperature and failure to use winter formulas.
Don’t beat your head when choosing seasonal glue, fill in the “use temperature+storage and transportation temperature” columns clearly first. Sunlife has dual season inventory of summer glue (resistant to about 35 ℃) and winter glue (resistant to about -5 ℃) – tell Sunlife your environmental range and match the model and process card according to the temperature resistance, which is much more stable than guessing the glue based on the season.
*This draft is for official website SEO and is awaiting manual review. The temperature range, bi seasonal inventory, and 90% equipment temperature control failure are all sourced from the Sunlife training material index and are not fabricated; The original index expression is “about 35 ℃/about -5 ℃”, and the accurate process values are subject to the accompanying process card. The content scope is limited to hot melt adhesive lines and does not involve skinning. Overlapping risk warning: Adjacent to the “Seasonal Adhesive List” in 2313, but this article focuses on “selecting models based on temperature resistance” from a different angle.

By focusing on six things, book and magazine printing factories can control costs and ensure stable supply through centralized procurement of hot melt adhesive granules: clarifying annual usage, locking technical parameters, supplying in batches at locked prices, setting safety stock, establishing acceptance standards, and building alternative suppliers. The following list can be directly used as […]
Hot melt adhesive granulesHow to read the test report? Legitimate hot melt adhesive particles should come with a testing report when leaving the factory. Newcomers are often discouraged by a bunch of indicators, but in fact, by grasping a few key items, one can judge whether it is good or bad. Below is a comparison […]
Conclusion I need it. Taken from a cold storage or low-temperature environmentHot melt adhesive granules，It must be warmed up to room temperature in the workshop before openingOtherwise, if the outside of the bag is cold and the air is hot, water vapor will condense on the surface of the particles, causing bubbles, white spots, and […]
Book bindingHot melt adhesive granulesHow often do you change it? There are two levels of “replacement” here: one is whether the material in the glue tank should be regularly cleaned and replaced, and the other is whether to change the model between different book types. Making a clear maintenance checklist can reduce a lot of […]
