Veneer adhesive is a process mainly used for manual veneer application on convex curved surfaces, technical veneers, irregular panels, and veneer repair. Veneer adhesive is a special water-based polyvinyl acetate, single-component, high solid content, quick-drying adhesive. Compared with general-purpose adhesives, this adhesive has characteristics such as being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, high final strength, good solvent resistance, and good heat resistance. Compared with ordinary white latex adhesive, it features lower glue application amount, quick drying, convenient operation, high production efficiency, and easy repair (reversible).
1. Application scope of veneer adhesive
It is mainly used for manual veneer application processes such as manual veneer application on convex curved surfaces, irregular surface laminating, and veneer repair. In particular, it provides a good method for dealing with paint blistering issues in curved furniture veneer application, manual veneer application, and irregular edge banding. This will greatly promote changes in furniture appearance design. It is suitable for hot pressing of veneers, decorative paper, etc., and is particularly suitable for the requirements of manual veneer edge banding and laminating processes. Even veneers 0.6mm thick or thicker are not restricted. As long as it is convenient to use an electric iron to heat porous structures for veneer application, this adhesive can be used.
2. Performance parameters of veneer adhesive
Type: Water-based
Appearance: Milky white liquid
Viscosity: 10000-18000 CPS, Brookfield sp.3, 20 rpm, 27°C
pH value: 4-5
Solid content: 40-50%
Minimum film forming temperature: 13°C
3. Usage method of veneer adhesive
A. Double-sided gluing: 1. Use a short-haired roller for double-sided gluing. Under the condition of ensuring symmetrical glue application, an application amount of 80-100 g/m² is ideal. 2. Apply glue first to the side that is not easy to absorb water (e.g., when applying veneer to MDF, apply glue to the veneer first; when applying veneer to solid wood, apply glue to the solid wood first). At 25°C, let it sit for 1-3 minutes (depending on the amount of glue applied). Touch with your hand; it should feel slightly sticky but the glue should not transfer to your hand. 3. Heat with an electric iron (temperature about 150-170°C) for 3-10 seconds. The heating time for the edges of the panel needs to be slightly longer. After pasting, check for bubbles or areas not firmly bonded. If found, iron again with the electric iron. Apply paint after 24 hours. 4. When the workplace temperature is below 13°C, close the bond immediately after gluing.
B. Single-sided gluing: 1. Use a short-haired roller for single-sided gluing, applying glue evenly. The application amount is 150-180 g/m². At 25°C, let it sit for about 45 seconds before covering with the veneer. The time depends on the amount of glue applied, the panel, and the relative humidity of the air. The principle is to ensure that the glue is easily transferred to the other substrate that has not been glued. 2. Heat with an electric iron (temperature about 150-170°C) for 10-30 seconds. 3. After pasting, check for bubbles or areas not firmly bonded. If found, iron again with the electric iron. Apply paint after 24 hours. 4. When the workplace temperature is below 13°C, close the bond immediately after gluing.
4. Bonding conditions and effect of veneer adhesive
Wood moisture content: 8-14%
Wood requirements: Ensure dimensional accuracy of the wood and freshness of the bonding surface, free from oil stains and dust.
Natural conditions: Generally not used below 13°C. If the ambient temperature is below 13°C, use an electric iron to heat before the glue dries.
Bonding strength: High strength can be achieved 7 days after bonding.
5. Health of veneer adhesive
Hazard: None
Cleaning method: Maintain good working and hygiene habits. If it gets on the skin, it can be washed with water and soap. Used tools can be cleaned with warm water before the glue dries.
6. Storage of veneer adhesive
Storage conditions: Store in sealed original containers, avoid high temperatures and frost. Storage temperature is 5-25 degrees.
Storage period: Generally not more than 6 months. Please follow the "first in, first out" principle.
7. Note: Do not mix with other glues.
