Hot melt adhesives, also known as glue sticks, are liquefied thermoplastic adhesives available in both low and high-temperature versions. Low temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 250°F/121°C temperatures, which makes them ideal for bonding electronics, plastics, cloth and other heat sensitive materials. High temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 380°F/193°C and produce a stronger bond than the low temperature hot melts.
Hot melt adhesives are widely used in the packaging Industry, case and crating manufacturing, mattress and foam fabrication and other Industries. Hot Melts are the most cost efficient adhesive when compared by weight to liquid adhesives for the simple fact that they are 100% solids – everything applied is use. Hot Melts are applied typically only on one side of the substrates to bond, either in beads or with air forming a swirl pattern which improves square coverage and reduces telegraphing.
Hot Melt Applications
Furniture and Building
Improving the quality, efficiency, and sustainability of furniture and building components is important. Hot melt adhesives bond a variety of wooden parts in many applications for furniture, mattress building applications.
Personal Hygiene
When it comes to health, wellness and comfort, consumers want quality. Hot melt adhesives for the disposable hygiene and nonwoven industry focused on high adhesion with skin-friendliness to deliver security for each application.
