Cold Glues are water-based solutions. The adhesive solids are dissolved in water, usually by cooking. A bond is formed when almost all of the water is lost via penetration or absorption into substrates. To create a solid bond, it requires 2 absorbent surfaces. There are three main types of cold glue adhesives: 1. Starch-- A whiteoff-white opaque solution, usually low in solids2. Dextrine-- Depolymerized starches, usually tan to dark brown in color (pyrolysis), which enhance solubility, increase wet tack, lower viscosity andor increase solids, and improve solution viscosity stability.3. Polyvinyl Alcohol solutions (PVOH)-- A synthetic water soluble adhesive or intermediate, Translucent. The dry film it leaves can be water sensitive or water resistant. Advantages Excellent penetrationExcellent wet tack and tack rangeExcellent final adhesion to regular stocksExcellent heat and cold resistanceEasy to clean up with excellent machining characteristicsStorage conditions not critical - freezethaw stableLow price per wet pound - raw material relatedLimitations Slow setting speed Poor adhesion to difficult surfaceCaution required when dilutingMust be protected from bacterial and fungal attack

Hot Melts are 100% non-volatile thermoplastic materials, solid at room temperature, melted to the application temperature desired, and applied in the molten state. A bond formation is obtained by cooling the substance to solidify after the wetting and penetration of both surfaces. Packaging and converting grade products are based on EVA. Hot Melts are formulated to provide desired adhesion, speed of set, open timebonding range, and heat andor cold resistance properties. Use of the highest quality raw materials with formulation compatibility yield excellent thermal stability and consistency of application and performance. Advantages Fast set speeds - high through putAdhesion to difficult or non-porous surfaces, wax coatings, poly-laminated stocks, plastics, etc.Water resistant Excellent glue line control No special storage conditionsGap filling (100% solids)Limitations Temperature sensitivity Special equipment requirements -- correct settingsadjustments is critical to performanceLow penetrationLimited toughness
