Novamelt offers a wide range of hotmelt pressure-sensitive adhesives
based on thermoplastic rubber
under the brand name Novamelt® PS.
These products are suitable for nearly every self-adhesive application
from low-adhesion products to very tacky, permanent products.
The main application areas are
self-adhesive labels, tapes, plasters, flexible packaging or
industrial intermediate products such as
sound-dampening material.
Self-adhesive technology offers
an intelligent and economical alternative
to mechanical fastening processes.
At room temperature, the products are solid.
These products are supplied in siliconised cardboard boxes
containing 4, 8 or 20 kg or
in fibredrums containing 165 to 175 kg.
Hotmelt adhesives are melted with
block melters or drum-unloaders.
Coating is made at 150 to 180 °C, depending on
the specific application, on standard roller- or
slot-die-coating machines.
