In modern life, we often come into contact with various adhesives, which play important roles in our daily lives. However, many people may not be familiar with the differences between these different types of adhesives. In this article, we will explore the characteristics and applications of three common adhesives – double-sided adhesive, oil adhesive, water-based adhesive, and hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive – to help you better understand these seemingly mysterious materials. 1. Double sided tape is a tape with adhesive coating on both sides, usually composed of a backing material (such as polypropylene or cotton cloth) and a uniformly distributed adhesive on its surface. The biggest feature of double-sided adhesive is that it can achieve a fast and secure connection between two objects without the need for solvents. It is widely used in the packaging industry, electronic product assembly, furniture manufacturing and other fields. Due to its convenience and efficiency, double-sided adhesive is also very popular in home DIY projects. 2. Oil based adhesive refers to a type of adhesive based on mineral oil. The advantages of this adhesive include high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and good waterproof performance. Therefore, they are commonly used in situations that require harsh environmental conditions, such as seals and coatings in the automotive industry. In addition, some fields of artistic creation also prefer to use oil-based pigments as a medium because they can give works a long-lasting gloss and protective layer. 3. Water based adhesive is a liquid adhesive composed of water and polymer lotion. Compared to other types of adhesives, water-based adhesives have the advantages of being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, easy to clean, and drying at a moderate speed. Because of this, they are widely used in industries such as wood processing, paper pasting, and wall decoration. Meanwhile, water glue is also one of the preferred tools for many handicraft makers. 4. Hot Melt Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (HMPSA) is an adhesive that forms a semi-solid state at a certain temperature and rapidly solidifies into a solid state after applying pressure. This special property makes HMPSA very suitable for high-speed and continuous coating operations on automated production lines. In addition, since no solvent evaporation time is required, products using HMPSA can be immediately put into use or further processed. There are relevant application examples in the medical supplies, shoe material manufacturing, and label printing industries. Each adhesive has its own unique characteristics and applicability. Choosing the appropriate adhesive is crucial for ensuring product quality and improving work efficiency. Whether for household or industrial use, a correct understanding and reasonable utilization of these “invisible assistants” will bring us great convenience and benefits.
