Solutions What Are Water-Based Adhesives?
Water-based adhesives are formed using natural polymers like starch, dextrin, casein, natural rubber latex, and animal glue; or engineered polymers like polyvinyl acetates, acrylics, polyurethane dispersion, and polyvinyl alcohol. Water-based glue works when water in the adhesive evaporates or is absorbed by the substrate. APPLIED Adhesives has you covered with water-based polymers that have the right viscosity for application systems that extrude, spray, or roll.
