Title VOC REDUCTION AND SUBSTITUTION OF PLASTICISERS IN MODERN WATER-BASED ADHESIVES FOR PAPER AND PACKAGING

Abstract It is demonstrated that plasticisers such as phthalates could be replaced by soft copolymer emulsions in formulations of water-based packaging adhesives, without loss of properties, and for some combinations, synergistic effects with reference to setting speed, adhesion and heat resistance, could be observed. Combinations of suitable soft copolymers and hard VAE copolymers are tested. Six copolymer emulsions based on different monomer systems and with Tgs below 0 degrees C were selected. Blends were compared to the properties of an externally plasticised hard VAE emulsion using diisobutyl phthalate as the plasticiser.
