Technical experts match adhesive to application: The diversity of substrates to be protected as well as the environmental conditions they endure often results in a close working relationship between Rohm and Haas technical specialists and protective film manufacturers. According to Matthew Cox, Technical Service Manager, the first step in the technical support process is to determine the key performance criteria needed. “We listen carefully to the customer to understand his end-application requirements,” says Matthew Cox.
“This helps us build a more complete picture of his needs so that we can recommend the right product or combination of products to provide the performance required.” For example, will the protective film have to withstand extremes of heat, cold, UV light or rain? What type of surface needs to be protected – aluminum, plastic, glass, textile? “Rohm and Haas has evaluated Robond PS-1000 adhesives over an extremely wide range of surfaces and conditions,” states Cox, “so we know how to help protective film manufacturers address an almost limitless combination of variables.”
Rohm and Haas's aqueous acrylic technology on which Robond PS-1000 adhesives are based provides significant advantages for worker safety and regulatory compliance. These water-based adhesives contain no solvents and therefore eliminate the expense used for solvent recovery or incineration systems, and greatly reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC's)in finished products.
