Glues are the new screws. This places new demands on developers, since different substrates need different adhesive raw materials – what sticks to steel doesn’t necessarily stick to non-polar polypropylenes. Tack (immediate bond), adhesion and cohesion, flow properties, open and hardening times must all be tailored to technical processes. TER Chemicals therefore offers a comprehensive range of raw materials: from resins and waxes through to highly specialized polymers and rubber.
