High temperature adhesive UNIBORD 624

Packaging

We only offer the whole package of 20 kg

Solid hot-melt adhesive with EVA base for automatic edge-banding machines. Characterized by high yield value (more than 30% higher than the traditional products), excellent specific adhesion, good solvents and water resistance, this product presents a transparent glue line.

 APPLICATIONS

It is used for gluing edges made polyester, of solid wood, plastic laminates, melamine-base materials, PVC and ABS with primer, particularly when a frequent change in the colour of the glue should be requested. Suitable for softforming and for IMA and HOMAG work centres.

USAGE ADVICE

Frequently check the temperature of the glue on the rollers. Temperatures below the recommended value for application cause a decrease in open time with consequent defective gluing results; at higher temperatures the adhesive may decompose with the detriment of colour, viscosity and adhesiveness. When gluing cold or damp surfaces, gluing defects may occur due to the reduction in open time.

 In case of break of work, it is suggested to reduce of 30°C – 40°C the temperature in tray to avoid a degradation of the performance of the product.

Occasionally, unsatisfactory gluing results may be due to the type of edge or to the presence of release agents on the materials/panels; a preliminary test is therefore recommended. Should such problem occur, it is advisable to use a suitable preparatory product.

STORAGE

Shelf life: 24 months at 20°C in original closed packages.

To store the product at temperature higher than 30°C may cause problems of condensation.
