Although their applications are diametrically opposed, the two new pressure-sensitive adhesives share the same acrylic emulsion base chemistry. Aroset APS 1295 is a coater-ready adhesive for permanent applications, while Aroset 2570 adhesive is designed for temporary applications.
Aroset APS 1295 acrylate emulsion can deliver high performance with a more environmentally compatible profile than the solvent-based adhesives typically used in permanent tape applications. It reportedly provides good adhesion to variety of surfaces and high cohesion, so it performs admirably in tapes used in building and construction, house wrap splice, and industrial assembly. It also can be used in permanent labels and decals, and overlaminating films.
