List of featured suppliers of ADHESIVES BY COMPOSITION Contact on Building Products Index
Adhesives by composition, contact refer to a type of bonding agent that is applied directly to the surfaces to be bonded. Contact adhesives are designed to create an instant bond when the two surfaces are pressed together. They usually have a high initial tack, allowing them to hold the substrates in place while the full bond develops. These adhesives can be applied by brush, roller, or spray, and are commonly used in the manufacturing of furniture, automotive parts, and footwear. They are also used in the construction industry for bonding materials such as laminate, veneer, and insulation. Contact adhesives are often preferred over traditional solvent-based adhesives as they are easier to handle, have a longer shelf life and are less flammable.
