Adhesives - Different types of A-C Performance Additives are used in Hot Melt Adhesives (HMA) to modify the rheological behaviour, to enhance the adhesion performance and to increase the heat resistance.
Different types of A-C Performance Additives are used in Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) to increase lap shear adhesion, reduce oil migration into the surface and improve heat aging resistance.
