PRESSURE SENSTIVE ADHESIVE

Introduction

Pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) are a unique class of adhesives that bond to surfaces with the application of light pressure, eliminating the need for heat or solvent activation.

Purpose

The primary purpose of pressure sensitive adhesives is to create strong, reliable bonds quickly and easily without the need for additional activation methods. They offer excellent initial tack and cohesive strength, which allows them to adhere firmly to surfaces upon contact.

Applications

Pressure sensitive adhesives are widely used across various industries, including packaging, automotive, electronics, and medical. In packaging, PSAs are essential for sealing boxes, labels, and tapes, providing a quick and efficient way to secure items.
