- Identification
Dextrin, a low molecular weight carbohydrate produced by hydrolysis of starch, is the main ingredient in certain water-based adhesives.
- HIGHLIGHTS
Dextrin adhesive glue is a liquid glue made by cooking starch to 200°F in water, which forms a solution that can be modified for tack, open time, and various other properties.. Dextrin adhesives provide clean machining and excellent bonding properties to cellulosic materials, such as paper and paperboard. They exhibit high wet tack, are light straw to amber in appearance and are typically cost effective.
- Usage
Dextrin applications include laminating, converting, printing, core winding, carton and case sealing, paper bag and envelope manufacturing.. Their re-moistenability makes them useful in the manufacturing of stamps and envelopes, and because they are water soluble they can be cleaned easily.
