Skillfully placed in the spotlight - as good as sold

DisplayverklebungIn summer, they remind us to pack our sun cream. In autumn, they present us with the newest decoration ideas. In winter, they tempt us with chocolate delights. Who? The names of the silent but extremely successful "salesmen" are: shelving displays, folding displays, promotion boxes or just dispensers.

A brief video in the main text shows which role hot melt adhesives play in the manufacturing of the often striking displays.

„Can I have that in a writing form please?“

When the telephone rings in our application technology laboratory, the caller isn't always asking about the best way to bond materials. Sometimes the caller simply says: "Could you please send us a verification that your glue is vegan?" – or halal or kosher or something else. Things which only put a hint of a smile on someone's face can make an important competitive difference for a packaging manufacturer.

Polyamide hot melt adhesives on the basis of renewable raw materials

Raps Resource-caring handling and sustainability of products used are possible even when using melt adhesives. Manufactured from renewable raw materials such as Diemer fatty acids from castor oil and rapeseed oil, polyamides (PA) show the characteristics of excellent melt adhesives even when unformulated. PA melt adhesives are mostly used in sectors with high requirements: for example when assembling technical components, electronics assembly, automobile construction and shoe production.

Many polyamides have an extremely high heat resistance (up to 180°C) depending on their viscosity, and all this at excellent low-temperature resistance. Specially developed types pass the tests carried out in the automobile sector at temperatures of between -35 and +135°C.

Surface pre-treatment

Sandstrahlen zur OberflächenbehandlungIn terms of adhesion technology there are requirements on the surfaces to be bonded to ensure successful bonding. This is because even the "greatest and best" adhesive can only carry out its task if it can set up sufficient adhesion. To do this, the service may need to be specially pre-treated which would include two important steps:
  1. Preparation
  2. Pre-treatment
Here you can find out what you need to take into consideration in this case.
