Frequently Asked Questions about Paper Bag & Industrial Sack Adhesives
Why does hot melt technology fit the best for paper bag sealing?
Hot melt adhesives are solid at standard temperature and non-hazardous. They become liquid after being heated above their softening point, at which time they can be processed. They can immediately bond the two parts on the substrate by cooling. That adhesive technology contains both natural and synthetic polymers. The melting of the adhesive is processed between 100°c to 170°C, which kills most bacteria and viruses.
Hot melts can fast build up internal strength after cooling, allowing rapid assembly and additional processing. Hot melt adhesives are used in various industrial applications, mainly in food and pharmaceutical environments, as they are free of water and solvent after application. One of the primary users is the packaging sector, such as manufacturing packaging from paper, cardboard, and corrugated board.
