Product Description
Industrial hot melt is utilized in specialized applications tailored to the needs of different industries. A diverse range of dispensing machines, glue sticks, and hot melt adhesives (HMAs) are available, each tailored for specific purposes. Variations in color, thickness, heating point, ingredients, and curing time exist within different types of HMAs.
Hot melt adhesives are adhesives that become liquid when heated and solidify when cooled, forming a strong bond. They are used while in a liquid state at temperatures varying between 120 °C to 180 °C, depending on the bonding materials and purpose. Hot melt adhesives are adhesive compounds made of multiple polymers, enabling the modification of specific properties through the combination of two or more polymers and additives.
• Extended duration of freshness
• Can be easily discarded, typically without needing special precautions (disposal considerations are extremely important)
• Avoid decreasing in thickness during solidification (solvent-based adhesives experience a 50-70% reduction in layer thickness)
• Hot melt adhesives are safer to use and better for the environment because they usually don't contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and are solvent-free.
• Hot melt adhesives have a wide range of uses across different industries such as packaging, automotive, electronics, construction, and woodworking due to their versatility.
Hot-melt adhesives are utilized on materials that are permeable and porous. Different materials like glass, wood, ceramics, metal, rubber, and plastic can be bonded by them. The choice of hot-melt adhesive for industrial use is determined by the end product. Non-toxicity holds significance in the food industry. Resistance to dry cleaning solvents is crucial in the textile industry for garments that are suitable for dry cleaning. Biodegradable HMAs are crucial for diapers. Listed below are a few industrial applications of HMA:
Certain hot melt adhesives (HMAs) can be in the form of hot melt glue sticks, available in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and compositions. They work with challenging substrates like glass and metal. These need a high level of heat in order to operate correctly. Those small candles with wicks in glass containers commonly seen during the holiday season could have been made using a glass to metal HMA. The zinc disc at the bottom of the container holds the wick in place. The HMA needed should secure the wick to the metal disc on the glass base rapidly and efficiently, allowing for easy pouring of hot candle wax into the container. It is essential that the wick remains in place. A particular timeframe is necessary, neither too lengthy nor too brief, for the particular task.
Another instance relates to applications involving cardboard. Every retail establishment needs sturdy boxes for their items that are transported by large trucks. If the carton sealant is too light, the contents' weight will cause the carton to open. Similarly, the carton closure must not be overly heavy or rigid since actual individuals need to open the cartons at the end location, whether it be a grocery store or retail establishment. The workers' speed is connected to how easy it is to open the boxes. When a team is handling numerous boxes, the speed at which they open them greatly impacts the time it takes to finish the task. Just like with all other HMA applications, there is a suitable adhesive for every specific task, such as sealing cartons.
Certain applications necessitate hot melts instead of glue sticks. Varieties of colors include: amber, beige, black, tan, off-white, yellow, clear, and white. They also vary in terms of designated time, temperature, and category, whether pressure-sensitive or not. Resistance to high temperatures and low temperatures could also be among the distinct features of HMAs. Hot melt dispensing machines are utilized for hot melts. Hot melt dispensing machines consist of tanks, tankless options, hoses, guns, and modules. Contact us for help with finding the best HMA approach for your hot melt needs if you know your application but are unsure. We have adhesive engineers who can assist you. If you can't find a suitable option from our wide range of choices, we are able to create a customized solution tailored to your industry.
As per the market research report "Global Hot Melt Adhesives Market Size, Share, Development, Growth and Demand Forecast to 2028 - Industry Insights by Application (Packaging, Electronics, Wood & Furniture, Nonwovens/Hygiene, Construction), by Type (EVA, PUR, SBS/SIS, HMPSA, PA, and Others)," the market is projected to achieve a value of $10.7 billion by 2028, with a 5.1% CAGR expected during the forecast timeframe. This suggests that the hot melt adhesives market will experience consistent growth in the following years.
The growth is due to the expansion of end-use industries and the packing industry. Additionally, there is a need for eco-friendly glues. As previously stated, HMAs are typically easy to dispose of, unlike other adhesives that may need specific disposal methods to comply with environmental regulations. That in itself should grab the attention of any industry, as the environmental penalties can be high and also come with a probationary period until the company is deemed "clear" once more.
Emerging economies make use of HMAs. HMAs are utilized, for instance, in lightweight and fuel-efficient automobiles. HMAs are used for their durability and quick setup times. Car seats are utilized with them. They serve as joints. For HMAs, the packaging and non-woven industries are developing industrial sectors.
Due to the wide range of applications that HMAs have in the manufacturing and industrial sectors, it is essential that HMA equipment functions correctly and reliably. Performance and quality are crucial. A single mishandled order resulting in torn seams and unsticking adhesives might terminate a profitable partnership between the supplier and the customer. Thus, get in touch with us if you require a specific kind of machinery and HMA to complete your task properly. We offer a wide variety of HMAs. We can help you with your unique industrial needs and be your one-stop shop for HMAs.
