Adhesives

Additives for Polymer Dispersions

The label and tape industry is one of the most dynamic markets for the application of waterbased polymer dispersion.

In waterbased Pressure Sensitive Adhesives interface phenomena are of superior importance. Problems like macro-/micro-foam or surface defects require specific solutions. Based on our special know-how about interfacial chemistry we offer high performance additives for polymer adhesives controlling processes like defoaming, deaerating and wetting.
