Polyurethane Hot Melt Adhesive (PUR hot melt adhesive for short) is a moisture curing reactive hot melt adhesive. Its main component is isocyanate-terminated polyurethane prepolymer, which has excellent bonding properties and chemical resistance. PUR hot melt adhesive melts into a fluid after heating, which is convenient for coating; after cooling, the adhesive layer condenses to play a bonding role; then it reacts with moisture in the air or on the surface of the adherend to extend the chain, generating a polyurethane elastomer with high cohesion, which significantly improves the bonding force, heat resistance, and low temperature resistance. PUR hot melt adhesive shows excellent bonding properties to a variety of materials and is widely used in national economic fields such as packaging, wood processing, automobiles, textiles, electromechanical, and aerospace.
