Why does hot melt adhesive turn black when heated? The color of hot melt adhesive itself does not change easily before and after heating, but it is not absolute in actual use. So why does a good room temperature adhesive turn black when heated and dissolved?
At the production level, hot melt adhesive will undergo color changes due to the type and weight of raw materials added. Once made into a finished product, the color of the colloid at room temperature will not change significantly after heating and dissolving with hot melt adhesive, which is the result of normal use. However, in reality, there are many factors that affect the change in the state of hot melt adhesive.
1. Excessive carbides in the glue pot
After completing daily gluing tasks, there will be more or less glue residue in the glue pot. Especially for companies that use a small amount of glue after each production plan, they habitually reheat the remaining glue for the next production. Many hot melt adhesive equipment operators have no awareness of cleaning the glue pot after working every day. In the case of cyclic heating, not only will the performance of hot melt adhesive deteriorate, but also more and more carbides will be produced in the pot. These carbides also act as impurities, continuing to hinder the performance of the adhesive. Moreover, the carbides have not been thoroughly cleaned, and the quantity is very alarming.
2. High temperature variation of inferior raw materials
No matter how good the recipe is, ingredients are the foundation! The same raw material has different properties. If the formula is not fine tuned, the performance of the produced hot melt adhesive will be different. In addition, there may be reactions between raw materials, so special attention should be paid. The experiment should be conducted for as long as possible at high, normal, and low temperatures to ensure the stability of the formula.
Color change is just one form of expression, and the reason is that heating hot melt adhesive intensifies molecular motion, increases molecular activity and the frequency of intermolecular collisions, which is a process that challenges product stability. Therefore, when choosing hot melt adhesive, it is important to choose a reliable hot melt adhesive manufacturer.
Three common pits for sealing the heaven and earth lid The sealing of colored box top and bottom lids (top and bottom lids) is a high-frequency process in the packaging industry, but problems such as lid popping, glue line overflow, and skewed sealing often occur on the production line. Many times nothot melt adhesive pelletsThe […]
Based on thermoplastic polymers, the properties of hot melt adhesives allow them to melt at high temperatures and then return to a solid state when the ambient temperature is reached. Hot melt adhesive has a wide range of applications, and its formula has obvious advantages over traditional adhesives. They can be combined with almost anything, […]
Hot melt adhesive needs to be heated by a hot melt adhesive machine before it can be used. The launch of this machine meets the needs of automated production of paper bags. For paper materials with different surface treatments, the performance of hot melt adhesive can be adjusted as needed. This allows for a variety […]
There are three commonly used testing methods for the peel strength of hot melt adhesive particles:180 ° peel off(Soft substrate to soft substrate, such as laminated paper, non-woven fabric)90 ° peeling(Soft substrate to hard substrate, such as cardboard bonding) andT-shaped peeling(Used when the flexibility of the substrate on both sides is similar). The most commonly […]
