| Tackwhite A 36 |
Description
TACKWHITE A 36 is a pure acrylic p.s.a., in water dispersion, with very good repulpability in alkaline water. It can be used for the production of repulpable semipermanent paper labels.
Application
Labels made with TACKWHITE A 36 are environment friendly; the adhesive is dispersed during washing process, with adequate monitoring of pH. During washing, it produces suspended particles that can be easily removed from water through normal filtering systems. Its non-agressive nature avoids problems in manufacturing the paper and limits defects in recycled paper processing.
