Introduction to PUR Technology: The document provides an overview of the ease of transitioning to PUR (Polyurethane Reactive) technology, particularly in the context of edgebanding using conventional edgebanders. It highlights the benefits of using pull ring cans for perfect dosing and the flexibility of switching between EVA and PUR adhesives.
Product Overview: Jowatherm-Reaktant® PUR Granulate is introduced as a versatile product suitable for various applications, including edges made of HPL/CPL, polyester, PVC, ABS, PP, resinated paper, solid wood, or veneer. The granulate form is particularly beneficial for small industrial companies and those new to PUR technology.
Underwater Granulation Process: The document explains the underwater granulation process, where molten material is extruded and cut into granules in a cooling liquid. This process results in round granules with optimal flow behavior and minimal contact surface, enhancing dosing and dispensing efficiency.
Technical Specifications: The document provides technical specifications for two types of PUR adhesives, including processing temperature, density, viscosity, and appearance. These specifications are crucial for ensuring proper application and performance.
Recommendations and Cautions: The document advises caution when processing moisture-curing hot melt adhesives, emphasizing the need for moisture-proof packaging and special melting units. It also stresses the importance of customer trials and testing for suitability under normal processing conditions.
Disclaimer: The information is based on laboratory tests and field experience but does not guarantee properties. Users are encouraged to consult technical data sheets and conduct their own trials to ensure suitability for specific applications.
