POLYFIX ® Spray adhesive is new generation adhesive
that is widely used as a replacement of synthetic rubber adhesive. The
innovative formulation provide 70 % saving on the total consumption in
comparison to the conventional synthetic rubber adhesive. Only 300 ml of
spray glue can do the work of almost 1 litre of conventional rubber
adhesive.
The spray is very easy to apply and provides an additional saving on the
labour cost. It is applied by using spray gun along with compressor with
hole size 1.6 to 1.8 mm, instead of old conventional brush applying method.
Composition
The product is
having high solid contents with very low viscosity and low odour. This
results in use of less balance quantity solvents, which is harmful for
environment and human breathing.
As the viscosity is very low it results in extra coverage in comparison to
earlier conventional synthetic rubber adhesives.As the viscosity is very low
it results in extra coverage in comparison to earlier conventional synthetic
rubber adhesives.

Points to be remembered before
application
- Preperation
- Make sure that the workshop is well air ventilated.
- The tank or bottle of the spray gun should be free of water.
- Make sure that the function of the spray gun is working well.
- Inspect whether the glue model is suitable for the desired
material.
- The surface of bonding materials should be free of oil, water,
dust etc.
- Workshop should be far away from fire or heat source.
- Key Points in operating
- The operating gun should be placed at a distance of 0.5 meter
making an angle of 45 degree with the surface, 6-8 Kg pressure is
normal for spraying. The effect of spraying should be small micro
grains or mist in fan shape. Spray evenly, do not make too thick or
thin coating.
- Time for spraying adhesive
- Please note that the airing time of each glue model differs
slightly according to their different formulas and operations, which
probably influence their performance. Improper operation will
probably cause in the failure of its stickability. More time is
needed for the glue to dry in low temperature or high humidity.
Please refer to the following specific notes.
- Proper pressure leads for better effect
- Proper pressure during the felting time will make the glue
perform better.
Operating notes for high quality sponge- Double sides sprayed
on, expose to air for 1-3 minutes before bonding, which should be prolonged
if meets low temperature or high humidity. Incorrect spray or insufficient
pressure will lead to cracking or desquamating.
Operating notes for spray glue for thick or artificial leather-
Spray or scratch on double sides, expose to air for 2-5 minutes before
bonding. Polish the surface of the target materials before operating, if
necessary.
Spray glue for cloth screen- Sprays on one or double sides. Bonding
is done immediately after the spray. Too high pressure of the spray gun or
too much spraying will lead to glue soaking.
Operating notes for spray glue for retardant materials- After
spraying on both the sides expose the surface to air for 1-3 minutes before
bonding. Incorrect spray or insufficient pressure will lead to cracking or
desquamating..
Operating notes for fireproof boards/suitcases and bags-After
spraying on both the sides expose the surface to air for 1-5 minutes before
bonding. Incorrect spray or insufficient pressure will lead to cracking or
desquamating.
Operating notes for mattress, thermo insulate materials, pillows and
foam materials- After spraying on both the sides expose the surface to
air for 1-5 minutes before bonding. All around pressure is important.
Incorrect spray or insufficient pressure will lead to cracking or
desquamating.
Operating notes for fireproof boards, PVC, Aluminum boards, plastic
veneer plank, plywood, metal, EVA Scratch on double sides- Wait for a
moment before bonding, 2-15 minutes airing time may be reqquired, which
depends on the temperature and humidity conditions. (Note- Cold temperature
and humid conditions needs more airing time).
Note
Different grades are
available as per specific requirement of customer.
Shelf Life
6 months in
sealed condition.
Packing-
4 litre, 5 litre,
18 litre (Tin)
Important Precautions
- Workshop should be well ventilated, this will lessen the amount of
volatile air which is flammable
- Keep proper humidity by wetting the workshop floor frequently or
place an air-wetting machine. (Static doesnt occur when humidity at 78%
and temp at 23°C (plus minus 3).
- Cotton clothes are required for the operators.
- Free the body static every 30 minutes for the operators.
- Carry and stack carefully and lightly to avoid static.
- When doing the last procedure of bonding the sponge or springs,
please do not cover them all over at one time, to let the flammable air
volatilize.
- It is strongly suggested to avoid impacting or hitting.
- Fire extinguishers should be available in the workshops.
- Fireproof material or fireproof glue is preferable to avoid of
static.
- Conduct regular training for workers, how to fight fire.
