Gel-Tac® 101A

• For use in applications that require the properties of low tack and clean removability
• This product is compliant under CONEG, Toy Safety ASTM 963-96a (Heavy Metals Only), and Hasbro Limits (Heavy Metals Only).

• Designed for direct coating onto paper substrates by conventional coating methods such as flexo or Mayer rod.
• Peel values of 1 - 3 oz/inch (28 – 85 grams/2.5 cm) are typically realized in the recommended coat weight range of 5 - 9 pounds (dry)/3000 sq. ft. (8 - 15 grams (dry)/sq. meter).
• This product shows optimal performance on paper substrates with intermediate Sheffield smoothness values. Some substrates may require priming or additional deposition of adhesive.

• This product may separate over time; this is typical for this type of adhesive.
• Mix before use; adhesive will readily redisperse with mild agitation.
• Check pH in open coating pans and adjust to 9.5 with ammonium hydroxide solution, if necessary. If the pH of the adhesive falls below 8.8, coagulation may occur.
• Air operated diaphragm pumps are recommended to pump the adhesive. Avoid the use of high-speed centrifugal pumps.

The adhesive will clean up with water and mild soap when wet; dried material may require clean up with a solvent such as acetone or ethyl acetate.

For best performance, the product should be stored and used at 65 - 85°F. Do not freeze. Keep containers closed to maintain proper pH.
