Adhesives for Filter Assembly
About Filter Assembly Adhesives
In the air filter manufacturing industry, there are many applications where hot melt adhesives are used. Hot melt adhesives are resistant to high and low temperatures and offer fast set times and so they are widely used in the manufacture of air filters. Hot melt adhesives with fast set times are often the best choice when manufacturing air filters; because of the fast-running filter machines. Hot melt seals the filter frames, laminates the filter media, and carefully closes the separators.
EVA & APAO Hot Melt for Filter Applications
EVA Hot Melt and APAO based hot melt adhesives that are flexible in cold temperatures are good options for filter manufacturing. These adhesives show excellent bond strength and machining characteristics.
Polyamide Based Hot Melt for Filter Applications
Polyamide-based and polyester-based (PET) hot melt adhesives are also used for air filters in industrial or car ventilation systems that have to withstand high temperatures. These hot melts are highly chemical and heat resistant - and offer stronger adhesion to paper and non-woven fabrics.
