Plastic floors are more popular in the international market. It is now a new lightweight floor material in renovations and has a wider range of applications.For example, plastic floor tiles are commonly seen in many public buildings. The widely used plastic floors are made from polyurethane and most suitable for laying on outdoor sports grounds.PVC is a kind of plastic. PVC floor is one of the types of plastic floors, but may people call it a plastic floor. PVC floors with adhesive on the back side are very convenient for end users. They only need to tear off the release paper to adhere and assemble the floor. This is very suitable to the fast-paced life nowadays and consumers can do this immediately when they want to.Comparison: Ordinary vs. Adhesive PVC floor tiles  The glues commonly used for PVC floors on the market are classified into three types that are applied in different processes.1. Super glue: This a solvent-based glue containing toluene. It must be applied in ventilation environment and a glue drying process is needed to produce stickiness after volatilization.2. Water-based pressure sensitive adhesive: This is an environment-friendly water-based glue and does not contain toluene. The stickiness is produced when applying pressure and rework is carried out easily. However, immersing in water for a long period of time may damage the stickiness.3. Hot Melt Pressure Sensitive Adhesive: This is an environment-friendly hot melt glue and does not contain toluene. It is waterproof and the stickiness is produced when applying pressure. This is also suitable for DIY construction.Selecting hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive and its effect on PVC floor adhesivesThe PVC floor is comprised of PVC plastics, calcium carbonate, plasticizer and other additives. Environment-friendly plasticizer is added to improve the flexibility of PVC floor tiles and make them softer. However, plasticizer has a physical phenomenon of leakage and moves gradually from the inside to the surface as time goes on. As a result, the glue of the hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive will be solved and its cohesive will be damaged more seriously with time of storage, leading to spilling of the adhesive under heavy pressure and movement of some adhesive when the release paper is torn off.Once the stickiness of the hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive becomes worse, the angle may lift when it is stuck on. Hence, selecting the correct adhesive is one of the key elements for PVC floors.To solve the above-mentioned problem, our R&D personnel develop a hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive with outstanding cohesion and substantially improved property to overcome the loss of stickiness due to leakage of plasticizer and ensure the adhesive of the self-sticking PVC floor remains cohesive and sticky after storage for a long period of time. This is a product that customers can use safely and comfortably.We have had our technical strength and strong R&D team for more than 40 years, and provide targeted development services to meet the requirements of the customer. We specialize in the areas of hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive for PVC floor tiles, UV matte coating materials, and other adhesive application requirements.With our strength of solution, we help Top 100 companies implement their production processes and meet their production requirements for PVC floor tile adhesive and surface scratch and wear resistant UV matte coating materials.

What are VOCs?VOCs is the acronym for Volatile Organic Compounds. The definition of VOCs is different among countries. They usually refer to the organic compounds that volatilize easily at room temperature. Burning of fuels and gases produced by transportations are the main source of outdoor VOCs. If it's indoors, they're usually produced from building or decoration materials, furniture, household appliances, cleaners, and so on. (Source: Wikipedia)As the air pollution becomes an increasingly serious problem in recent years, many countries established regulations to govern the air quality and speed up the reduction of the use of VOCs in major industries by promoting greening of industries and improving the quality of the atmospheric environment to protect the health of human beings.VOCs and air pollutionThe environmental trend of low VOCsThe Environmental Protection Administration governs the products containing VOCs, including adhesives and sealants, and sets a limit value of their concentration to reduce the emission of VOCs.Our core value is to provide environment-friendly, innovative, and safe products and protect the interests of our customers to meet the requirements of the laws and regulations.

People try to stay indoors to reduce the spread of COVID-19, so the time spent at home increased. We must keep the windows open for air circulation. But with an air purifier, that is not necessary at a non-ventilated environment.The main function of an air purifier is to effectively eliminate harmful suspended particles in the air, which can remove formaldehyde, eliminate bacteria, and purify the air.The key to an air purifier is its filter. Hot-melt adhesive is required to make the filter, which is applied to two areas: the frame and the filter element.A household purifier filter element is usually made using chemical fiber filter papers.During the production process, glue lines are applied to the filter paper. The filter paper is folded, pressed and bonded to the glue lines, and then cooled to take shape.Then hot-melt adhesive is applied to the screen frame using a roller or manual glue gun to affix the filter element. This process produces beautiful and durable filters, and ensures effective air purification and sterilization effects.Fusion of Perfect Filter and Hot-melt AdhesiveThe new material formula design uses Hot Melt 合得妙® adhesive to bond the air purifier screens, which has the low odor, low VOC, and strong stability advantages.1.

Relevant reports show that only 36 kg of milk is consumed per person per year in the country! The rate is far below the world drinking milk standard. Besides, the amount of milk consumed by Chinese is about only one-third of the average level of the world dairy industry. Have you been drinking dairy today?What nutrients does a dairy product give us?Dairy products are mainly composed of water, protein, fat, lactose and rich minerals. Billions of people around the world consume these high-quality nutrients from milk and dairy products every day.People also use the fat floating characteristics of milk to make a variety of dairy products.Liquid milk (sterilized milk, yogurt), milk powder, condensed milk, milk fat (cream), cheese, cream, other dairy products. How can dairy products preserve nutrition effectively?Dairy products are rich in various nutrients, providing people with nutrients; however, they may also become the natural medium of microorganisms, causing deterioration of dairy products. Unsuitable storage is prone to cause a series of chemical changes that accelerate these deterioration processes and let nutrition become a hazard.Different dairy products have different storage methods and time; we arrange the information as follow.Fresh milk, as known as pasteurized milk, usually filled in glass bottles or fresh milk house box and needs to be refrigerated.Normal temperature milk, after high temperature sterilization, commonly used in Tetra Pak packaging, carton pack, etc., does not require refrigeration.Yogurt, fermented by a number of bacteria, most of them need to be refrigerated. The ingredients are similar to milk, but the lactose ratio is reduced by about 30%. Those who are lactose intolerant can choose yogurt.Yogurt drink (including milk drink), general yogurt, sour milk, lactic acid bacteria drink, fruit milk, etc., can be stored at normal temperature. Packaging styles are different to save nutritionTo preserve the best nutrients in dairy products in different circumstances, we use kinds of packaging methods after sterilized.Common packaging methods for dairy products are:Aluminum foil bag, the sun cannot penetrate, can be aseptic filled, being suitable for normal temperature or cold storage, and having long-term preservation characteristics. In addition to dairy products, Aluminum foil bag is also used to fill juice and tea.Carton and paper cups, with waterproof plastic film, commonly used in packaging milk and juice.PET bottle, with lightweight, being shatterproof and easy to carry.Portable flexible packaging, being reusable convenience and space saving.
