Polyolefinic (PO) Hot Melt Adhesives

When producing hot melt adhesives, it is necessary to pay particular attention to their characteristics. These adhesives, after all, are specifically designed to provide the customer with long-lasting holding.

These types of adhesives must withstand high temperatures and extreme stresses (impacts, falls, tensions). Polyolefinic-based hot melt adhesives are widely used in the industrial sector due to their considerably superior qualities compared to traditional EVA-based adhesives.

However, to ensure these adhesives actually meet the needs of the industry, they must undergo numerous controls and be manufactured with particular attention to quality. Otherwise, the adhesives may fail to maintain their holding once subjected to a different temperature or pressure.

Collagraf is dedicated to designing adhesives that adapt to customers’ needs, developing long-lasting quality products. Polyolefinic (PO) hot melt adhesives are focused on achieving the expected results.

The trend towards continuous evolution and a market-based approach have driven Collagraf to create ever-innovative hot melt adhesives. The search for new adhesive formulations and the constant development of tools and technologies have provided us with useful capabilities to develop innovative polyolefinic-based adhesives.

Before being released on the market, the adhesives are specially checked to ensure high quality standards.

Polyolefinic-based hot melt adhesives have proven to be exceptionally effective in bonding plastic-coated surfaces (PE, PPL, PVC, PES), painted and lacquered surfaces, thus finding wide use in the paper converting industry for the production of totems, displays, and stands.

Key features of PO hot melts are:

– Rapid setting time

– High fluidity in extrusion

– Significant resistance to high temperatures.
