What are the commonly used adhesives in furniture production? Most are divided into liquid adhesives, solid adhesives, and solution adhesives. The following is a detailed description from woodworking adhesive manufacturers.

1. Commonly used liquid adhesives in furniture production
(1) Water-soluble adhesives: Glue or solid completely melts in water.
(2) Emulsion adhesives: Solid particles dispersed or suspended in water.
(3) Liquid reactive adhesives: No solvent or very little solvent in the adhesive. Completely water-free, solid content of 100% or close to 100%, liquid at room temperature.

2. Glue sticks commonly used in furniture production (hot melt adhesives). These adhesives are solid at room temperature and melt into liquid at high temperatures.
(1) Conventional thermoplastic hot melt adhesives
(2) Moisture-curing reactive hot melt adhesives

3. Solvent adhesives commonly used in furniture production by woodworking adhesive manufacturers are similar to water-soluble adhesives. The difference is that this type of adhesive uses an organic solvent as a carrier, which can be acetone. This type of adhesive is usually flammable. The adhesive must be liquid during use. Water-soluble adhesives and emulsion adhesives use water as a carrier, while hot melt adhesives use heat as a carrier. These carriers are removed after wetting and penetrating, then curing occurs.
