Application Instructions
  • Suitable for use through standard application systems such as semi contact nozzle, slot nozzle, wheel and disk systems.
  • Paper straw production using open pot with roller and scraper system.
  • Cleaning Instructions: Whenever possible, adhesive residues should be washed off with cold water before it dries. Removal of dried adhesive may prove more difficult and will require warm soap water or with mechanically scratch.
Approved Substrates

Paper sheet 100 – 120 g/m2, paper sheet 60 g/m2, with or without wet strength treatment. Before use, suitable tests are necessary.

Typical Applications
