Applications & Uses
- Application Method
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Typical Applications
- Designed for direct coating onto paper substrates by conventional coating methods such as gravure or Mayer rod.
- Peel values of 2.5 - 7.5 oz./inch (70 - 210g/2.5 cm) are typically realized in the recommended coat weight range of 5 - 9 lbs. (dry)/3000 sq. ft. (8 - 15g(dry)/sq. meter).
- This product shows optimal performance on paper substrates with intermediate Sheffield smoothness values. Some substrates may require priming or additional deposition of adhesive.
- Application Instructions
- This adhesive may separate over time; this is typical for this type of adhesive.
- Mix before use; adhesive will readily redisperse with mild agitation.
- Check pH in open coating pans and adjust to 9.5 with ammonium hydroxide solution, if necessary. If the pH of the adhesive falls below 8.8, coagulation may occur.
- Air operated diaphragm pumps are recommended to pump the adhesive. Avoid the use of high-speed centrifugal pumps.
- Cleaning Instructions
The adhesive will clean up with water and mild soap when wet; dried material may require clean up with a solvent such as acetone or ethyl acetate.
