HydraCure Water Based Adhesives

AdCo HydraCure is a range of water-based adhesives and systems and solutions. Typical applications include paper and cardboard bonding, laminating sealing, and converting. AdCo HydraCure also has a range of water-based adhesives for timber bonding, all of the AdCo HydraCure range can be applied by spray, roller, and brush.

Below is a brief selection of the HydraCure range:

HydraCure D2 PVA Wood Adhesive is a high-quality PVA polymer emulsion-based adhesive, for general assembly woodworking applications, where bonds to BS4071 and BS5270: Part1: 1989, or EN204 D1 & D2 are required. This product exhibits very good adhesion to both soft & hardwoods and other porous materials such as papers and boards

HydraCure D3 is a one part self cross-linking PVA polymer emulsion-based adhesive, for general assembly woodworking applications, where a water-resistant bond is required to BS 14256. HydraCure D3 is suitable for hot and cold pressing of high-pressure laminates to timber, chipboard, OSB, and MFD. Also suitable for RF curing.HydraCure D3 is suitable for veneering operations in the furniture and panel assembly industries.HydraCure D3 can be used with AdCo’s A3040 activator to meet D4 specifications. An additional rate of 5% - 7.5% is recommended.

HydraCure 3072 is a fast setting, high solid content, PVA adhesive for use in the furniture and joinery industries. This grade has clean running characteristics and is dried to a clear film that meets the creep-resistant specifications of BS4071.
Hydracure 3072 is suitable for use on hard and soft woods, MDF, chip, and particleboards. This product is suitable for general bonding operations and veneering.

HydraCure E3127 PVA Wood Adhesive is a high-quality PVA polymer emulsion-based adhesive, for general assembly woodworking applications, where bonds to BS4071 are required. This product exhibits very good adhesion to both soft & hardwoods and is ideally suitable for laminating high-pressure laminates to porous substrates.

HydraCure 3130 is a modern generation one pack self catalysing crosslinking emulsion adhesive designed for wood bonding operations, including the laminating of HPL and decorative materials to cellulosic stock panels. The adhesive can be applied by roller coaters, knife or slot coaters applicators. Bonds MUST be made whilst the adhesive is still wet, but they may then be dried by hot or cold pressing (at temperatures above 16°C when cold pressing). Fast bonds are achieved when hot pressing, typically below 20 seconds at platen temperatures of 90°C. HydraCure 3130 is also RF-curable. When dried and cured, the glue line will give heat and moisture resistance meeting the demands of DIN 68602 D3 category. When used in appropriate fire door construction this adhesive can survive 30-minute fire rating tests satisfactorily, but it is based on the total construction of the door and not the rating of any or all components.
