Description
TACKSOL 10/83 EPM is a high performance solvent-born pressure sensitive adhesive, based on natural and synthetic rubbers and special resins. It has a very good resistance to ageing, light and heat, much higher than standard adhesives based on natural rubber only.
Application
TACKSOL 10/83 EPM can be applied on any substrate (paper, PET, PP, PE, PVC).
It is recommended for the production of protective films and tapes.

Handling
When heat or mechanical resistance must be increased, it is necessary to cure the product with isocyanate (e.g. CURING AGENT RF/AEDE); in this case the pot-life of the adhesive is reduced as crosslinking starts immediately after the addition of the curing agent. The amount of isocyanate depends on the final requested characteristics, usually it is 0.5-2%.
Packaging
The product is supplied in iron drums (145 kg).
Storing
Use within 12 months from production date (unopened and in the original packaging).
