| Résumé : |
Creating greener adhesives is a hot topic in today’s industry. Many manufacturers are taking action to improve the sustainability of their products and lower their environmental impact. Reduction in consumption—whether through improved fuel mileage in our vehicles, improved adhesive mileage in our packaging systems, or the use of energy-saving devices—is the most obvious and sustainable gain our society can strive to achieve.
Adhesives manufacturers have approached this issue by modifying chemical structures and additives, while equipment manufacturers have sought to reduce consumption with complex stitching, swirl patterns, and foaming devices. To circumvent the challenges associated with hot-melt technology, cool-on-delivery/hot-on-demand Liquamelt® technology aims to create greener alternatives in packaging adhesive technology. It targets a > 70 % reduction of the carbon footprint while maintaining the same or better performance characteristics by combining :
- Improved mileage obtained as a result of a water-blown, foamed adhesive process
- An adhesive formulation manufactured with greater than 40% renewable raw materials
- Delivery-point processing |
| Note de contenu : |
- The adhesives mechanism
- Increasing the green factor
- Performance analysis
- A green future |
