There are two types of hot melt adhesives: hot bonding and cold bonding. In fact, they are bonding in two different physical states. Today we will talk about the difference between cold bonding and hot bonding.
1. Cold bonding:
In the application of pressure-sensitive hot melt adhesives, cold bonding will
be used more. The self-adhesive bag sealant is more common in life, which is
the cold bonding method of hot melt adhesive, and the self-adhesive bag is produced
in proportion It will not be pasted immediately. When the hot melt adhesive is
already cooled when it is pasted, the cold bonding method can only be used, and
the cold bonding will not cause overflow of the glue, and the damage to the
surface of the substrate is small. Just gently press the quilt. The bonding
substrate can be adhered tightly.
2. Hot sticking:
it is very common in the application of sticking after glue, such as furniture
edge banding, shoe material outsole, large board flat sticking and so on. The
hot bonding method requires the use of a hot melt glue machine to heat the
glue, turn the glue into a liquid state and then apply it to the substrate to
be bonded. The liquid glue will fill up the crevices and textures on the
surface of the substrate, and even enter the substrate. Internally, the two
substrates are firmly bonded together.
Cold sticking
and hot sticking solve the problems in different adhesive application fields.
In fact, the liquid glue molecules have different degrees of activity. The
molecular structure of hot melt adhesive has become relatively stable in the
cold bonding state, and it is very convenient to paste; when the hot melt
adhesive is used in the hot bonding state, its molecules become very active
when heated, which can impact the molecular structure of the substrate surface,
even with The molecular structure of the substrate is fused, which shows that
the thermal bonding effect is better.
