Adecol® CA-9023 adhesive is made from natural raw materials (animal protein) in aqueous medium, with gel characteristics at ambient temperature, added with stabilizing agents. The ADECOL® CA-9023 adhesive features an excellent instant grip, coupled with the fact that it is applied hot with rapid gelatinization when cooling, fast fixation and short open time, allowing operations at high speeds and not generating stresses during drying.

Typical Applications

This adhesive was developed especially for automatic equipment in the graphic industry, to making hard notebook covers, diaries and/or similar, obtaining excellent performance in high speed equipment.

Application Instructions

Surfaces should be free dust, grease or oil, the application temperature range should be checked at each specific step according to the following factors: Characteristics of substrates, equipment, speed, quantity adhesive and ambient temperature. Because it is an animal protein it is recommended not to subject it to a temperature above 70°C which will cause degradation.

Suitable Substrates

Hard notebook covers, diaries and similar.
