I am developing an adhesive for an application that requires heat resistance greater than 80°C. A formulation based on a waterborne polyurethane polymer currently provides the best adhesion to the substrate and is a fit for the application process. What approaches can be used to achieve the required level of elevated temperature performance?
I would like to achieve the high performance of a two-component polyurethane coating, but my application process is only able to handle a one-component system. Can any existing formulations help me make this performance leap?
Certain polymer-based adhesives are described as crystalline, while others are described as amorphous. How do these adhesive polymer types differ? What advantages could be expected from each type?
Confirming competitive pricing and product availability is a relatively straightforward process, but becoming comfortable with essential technical and performance requirements can be more complicated.
Sustainability is a subject that is often raised by potential customers. How should we target new product development or promote existing products to demonstrate that we are addressing their concerns?
Q: You've previously discussed polyol recommendations for formulating a two-component polyurethane adhesive. Do you have similar recommendations for the isocyanate component? In many ways, the recommendations for choosing the proper
I am developing a two-component reactive adhesive and need some guidance on polyol selection. Can you provide information on the performance expectations of different polyol components? The variety of hydroxyl-containing
A particular application will require me to bond a variety of optically clear polymers to each other and to glass. What adhesive options are available?A particular application will require me
A lot of recent discussion has focused on making construction adhesives and sealants green by eliminating formaldehyde, plasticizers or solvents. Are there similar alternatives for the coatings that are often
