Where These Hot Melt Adhesive Pellets Are Used?

Packaging and E-Commerce Packaging

Hot melt adhesive pellets are used in many packaging applications where rapid setting, high holding force and high production efficiency are required. They are available to bond a variety of materials including corrugated board, kraft paper, cartons and packaging substrates and can be used in carton sealing, packaging assembly and automated production lines.

Furniture Manufacturing and Woodworking

Hot melt adhesive are typically employed in the furniture industry for edge bonding, veneer lamination and panel assembly. EVA-based adhesive pellets have a stable viscosity and excellent adhesive properties, providing consistent adhesive performance on wood, laminate and composite materials, and facilitating production processes.

Industrial Component Assembly

In certain industrial assembly applications, such as bonding, an adhesive must have a stable processing performance and an assured bonding ability. For certain bonding applications of components, the use of hot melt adhesive pellets is recommended to ensure fast application, clean processing, and long-lasting adhesion.

Bookbinding and Print Finishing

Hot melt adhesive pellets are also suitable for the application of book binders and printing, which demand flexible bonding and efficient process. They are used to ensure a reliable adhesion when joining pages in the spine, when binding cases, and in other print finishing operations, and they should have good flexibility when used and reused.

How to Choose the Right Hot Melt Adhesive Pellets?

When choosing the right hot melt adhesive pellets, there are a number of factors to consider such as: the type of substrates being used, processing temperature, viscosity and production speed. The use of the wrong adhesive grade can cause issues like inadequate wetting, inadequate bond strength, unstable coating or production downtime.

1. Select the Right Softening Point

One of the most critical properties to consider in the selection of hot melt adhesive pellets is the softening point. It specifies the temperature interval over which the adhesive starts to soften and flow.

Generally, for industrial bonding applications, the range of softening point of EVA hot melt adhesive pellets is in the range of 80°C-110°C, with lower softening point grades for applications that require lower processing temperatures and easier melting, and higher softening point grades for applications that require better heat resistance and bonding stability.

2. Match Viscosity with Your Application Equipment

The viscosity directly influences the flow of the adhesive, the uniformity of the coating and the performance of the machine.

When using automatic hot melt equipment, the viscosity of the EVA hot melt adhesive pellets is typically controlled within the range of 800–3000 mPa·s (at 180 °C) according to the application method.

• Lower viscosity grades: recommended for higher speed applications, thin coating and faster flow.
• Higher viscosity grades: used for applications where greater gap filling and bonding strength is desired.

The right viscosity can avoid problems like uneven coating, over-consumption of adhesive or unstable machine operation.

3. Consider Application Temperature and Production Speed

You’ll want to select the melting temperature of hot melt adhesive pellets to match the conditions of your equipment.

The typical EVA hot melt adhesive pellets are processed at about 150°C-190°C according to the formulation and applications.

Adhesive grades that have stable melting characteristics and appropriate open time are beneficial on high-speed production lines to ensure that the adhesive is consistently bonded while not compromising production.

4. Match the Adhesive Grade with Your Substrate

There are different characteristics of bonding between various materials.

• Paper and cardboard: Must have good flowability, rapid setting time and adhesion.
• Wood, laminate and furniture materials: Need to have high bond strength and proper flexibility.
• Composite materials:specific formulations may be needed for better surface compatibility.

The only way to make certain of performance before full-scale production is to test the adhesive on the actual substrate and production equipment.

For choosing the most suitable hot melt adhesive pellet grade, please give your substrate type, machine model, application temperature and production speed. A suitable formulation can be recommended according to the requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can hot melt adhesive pellets be used on automatic production lines?

Yes. Hot melt adhesive pellets are designed for use with industrial hot melt application equipment. To achieve stable processing, the adhesive grade should be chosen based on machine temperature settings, application rate and viscosity.
