2. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-melt_adhesive

   The glue is sticky when hot, and solidifies in a few seconds to one minute. Hot-melt adhesives can also be applied by dipping or spraying, and are popular with hobbyists and crafters both for affixing and as an inexpensive alternative to resin casting. In industrial use, hot-melt adhesives provide several advantages over solvent-based adhesives.

3. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Styrene block copolymers (SBC), also called styrene copolymer adhesives and rubber-based adhesives, have good low-temperature flexibility, high elongation, and high heat resistance. They are frequently used in hot melt adhesive applications, where the composition retains tack even when solidified; however non-pressure-sensitive formulations are ...

4. Thermal paste - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_paste

   Thermal paste consists of a polymerizable liquid matrix and large volume fractions of electrically insulating, but thermally conductive filler. Typical matrix materials are epoxies, silicones (silicone grease), urethanes, and acrylates; solvent-based systems, hot-melt adhesives, and pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes are also available.

5. Adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive

   There are two types of adhesives that harden by drying: solvent-based adhesives and polymer dispersion adhesives, also known as emulsion adhesives. Solvent-based adhesives are a mixture of ingredients (typically polymers) dissolved in a solvent. White glue, contact adhesives and rubber cements are members of the drying adhesive family. As the ...

6. Thermal-transfer printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal-transfer_printing

   Thermal-transfer printing is done by melting wax within the print heads of a specialized printer. The thermal-transfer print process utilises three main components: a non-movable print head, a carbon ribbon (the ink) and a substrate to be printed, which would typically be paper, synthetics, card or textile materials.

7. Adhesive tape - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive_tape

   A specific type of gummed tape is called reinforced gummed tape (RGT). The backing of this reinforced tape consists of two layers of paper with a cross-pattern of fiberglass filaments laminated between. The laminating adhesive had previously been asphalt but now is more commonly a hot-melt atactic polypropylene. Water-activated tape in a tape ...

8. Heat sealer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_sealer

   An electric current heats the heating element for a specified time to create the required temperature. The jaws hold the material in place after the heat is stopped, sometimes with cooling water: this allows the material to fuse before stress can be applied. [3] [4] [5] Hot melt adhesive can be applied in strips or beads at the point of joining ...

9. Hot melt coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_melt_coating

   Hot melt coating is the application of a layer to a substrate by pre-melting the desired material and then allowing or forcing the material to cool, solidifying the layer. The process is widely used in industry, including pressure-sensitive adhesives , [ 1 ] labels, pharmaceuticals, [ 2 ] etc.
