UV-C Hotmelts

EUKALIN UV-C HMPSA - efficient and adaptable

UV-C-curable hotmelt pressure sensitive adhesives (UV-C HMPSA) are – according to their name – surface sticky adhesives whose internal strength (cohesion) can be significantly increased by UV radiation (mercury lamp). These mainly acrylate-based formulations already replace solvent-based pressure-sensitive adhesives in many cases. These mainly acrylate-based formulations already replace solvent-based pressure-sensitive adhesives in many cases. In addition to the advantages of standard hotmelt pressure sensitive adhesives based on synthetic rubber or water-based dispersions, subsequent curing with UV radiation provides additional possibilities such as higher thermal or chemical resistance – without the use of an inert gas atmosphere.

UV-C HMPSA from EUKALIN are highly transparent, resistant to a variety of chemicals / plasticizers and are also suitable for sensitive applications due to covalent-bonded photoinitiators. Independent of your application temperature, direct or transfer coating or whether you need good cutting properties – EUKALIN offers you tailored UV-C HMPSA for applications such as clear-to-clear, wash-off labels, tapes and specialities.

The terrible storms have heavily damaged our region. EUKALIN was fortunately untouched, but with regret we have followed the effects of the storm and our thoughts are with the victims and the courageous emergency services and all supporters!
