Lubrizol Participates In World Adhesives Congress 2016
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
CLEVELAND, September 16, 2016 - The Lubrizol Corporation's Engineered Polymers
business announces that it will participate at World Adhesives Congress (WAC)
2016 taking place in Tokyo, Japan, on October 28, 2016. Lubrizol will present a
paper on its latest innovations in thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) for high
performing hot melt adhesives (HMAs) and reactive hot melt (RHM OR HMPUR).
At WAC 2016, Lubrizol will focus on recent developments with the high-adhesion,
soft Pearlbond(TM) 300 TPU series for bonding of any substrates in the textile
market, even difficult ones. Despite its low hardness ranging from 52 to 64
Shore A, the Pearlbond 300 TPU series is plasticizer-free so the risk of
adhesive migration during processing is diminished, reducing defects from
staining or weak seams. Improved processability and extrusion at low
temperatures are two other key features.
The outstanding elasticity of the new Pearlbond 300 TPU series gives a new
freedom of movement, as well as comfort and soft touch feel. These values can
also be found in Pearlbond 700, the first of a new generation of fast and high-
heat resistant TPUs (new) that help hot melt adhesive manufacturers to make
stronger products with low temperature flexibility and good adhesion in textile
lamination, automotive, metals, woodworking, filters, conveyor belts, and Cured
In Place Pipe (CIPP) applications.
Javier Tortosa, Lubrizol Engineered Polymers' global business manager for
adhesives, notes, "TPU was invented by Lubrizol Advanced Materials in 1959 and
since its invention, Lubrizol has continued to innovate and apply its in-depth-
TPU experience and knowledge to help customers succeed by driving innovative
solutions for some of the industry's toughest applications challenges. The
Pearlbond 700 series will help adhesive manufacturers save money by cutting down
setting time via a high-performing bonding solution that requires less energy to
process and provides a higher life cycle expectancy since it can be applied at
low-temperature."
This new fast and high-heat TPU delivers the benefits of better impact
resistance and adhesion, as well as absorption of vibrations. Gonzalo Löwenberg,
Lubrizol Engineered
Polymers' Adhesives R&D manager for applications & technical service, adds that
"Pearlbond 700 is a breakthrough and evolution in crystalline TPU chemistry that
has broken the barriers of the traditional TPU adhesive market. There is no
other TPU for adhesives like it."
