Pearlstick 46-73/15 Polyester based thermoplastic polyurethane Merquinsa PU - Thermoplastic (TPU) ADHESIVE >> Solvent based FOOTWEAR & LEATHER Soluble in acetone, MEK and cyclohexanone Insoluble in isobutyl acetate, methylene chloride, toluene and xylene TPUs for the adhesives industry Polyester based TPU elastic, linear, aromatic polyurethane with a very high crystallisation speed and a medium themoplasticity level. Pearlstick 46-73/15 Crystallization : very high Thermoplasticity : medium Open time : medium PEARLSTICK 46-73/15 is used for the production of adhesives for plasticised PVC to plasticised PVC or other materials such as leather, textiles, rubber, in the shoe industry. The addition of a polyfunctional isocyanate (QUIDUR® 246-06) improves the heatresistance and the strength of the joints. As a rule, the addition of 5 parts by weight of QUIDUR® 246-06 to 100 parts by weight of a 20% solution of PEARLSTICK 46-73/15 should be adequate. The pot-life of the mixture should be taken into account. Elastic, linear, polyester based TPU. Used for the production of adhesives for bonding plasticised PVC to plasticised PVC or other materials such as leather, textiles, rubber, in the shoe industry. Offers very high crystallization speed, medium thermoplasticity level and medium open time.
