tested substrates / surfaces
EVA
Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer (EVA) the most applied hotmelt / copolymer at present
Characterization:
- short to middle open and setting time
- low heat resistance
- good heat and aging resistance
- good cold flexibility
main applications:
wood and packaging industry, floristry, carpets / room textiles, product assembly, plenty of other applications
POL
Amorphous Polyolefin (APAO, complex Copolymers
Characterization:
- middle to extra long open and setting time
- low to high heat resistance
- middle to very high softening point
- good to very good cold flexibility
- compared to EVA, higher chemical resistance
main applications:
concrete industry, insulation industry, mattresses, trays/displays, textiles, carpets
PSA
Pressure Sensitive Adhesive / thermoplastic rubber
Characterization:
- very long to almost unlimited open and setting time
- low to middle heat resistance
- middle to very high softening point
- very good cold flexibility
main applications:
packaging, insulation, mattresses, foamed plastics, textiles, sanitary products, bonding of wide surfaces
PAM
Polyamide
Characterization:
- highest chemical resistance compared to EVA, POL and PSA
- highest application width in regard to cold and heat
- very short to middle open and setting time
- very high heat resistance
- very high cold flexibility
- high to very high softening point
- adhesion absorbs wather, needs to be stocked sealed
main applications::
automotive industry, protector / spacer for roofing tiles, grouting of electronical components, production of conductor boards, filling of knotholes
