Pressure Sensitive Adhesives

Pressure Sensitive Adhesives

Henkel Technomelt® PS line of pressure sensitive adhesives are the leading choice for the best results in production processes. Designed to optimize coater line speed in labeling and other applications requiring high tack. Among this line of products, are hot melts that also fulfill food contact requirements.

Pressure sensitive adhesives require pressure to initiate bonding between the adhesive and the substrate, whereas other adhesives require heat, water, or a solvent. Other factors that influence bonding include, surface energy, preparation smoothness, and temperature. If an environment is too hot or cold, the adhesive may be compromised and lose its tackiness.
