Water Based Adhesives, Natural Polymers, and Synthetic Polymers
HAR water-based adhesives are made up of materials or compounds that
can be dissolved or dispersed in water. These adhesives generally
develop a bond by losing water through evaporation or penetration
into the substrates. At least one substrate must be absorbent or
porous in order to form a strong bond.
Water-based adhesives come in a variety of chemistries and
compositions, and can be categorized as either natural or synthetic
polymers. Following is a breakdown of water-based adhesives by
composition:
Synthetic Polymers -
Polyvinyl Acetate, Vinyl Acetate Acrylics, Vinyl Acrylics,
Acrylics, Polychoroprene and Polyurethane Dispersions.
Natural Polymers –
Dextrin, Starch, Casein, and Natural Rubber Latex.
