This section gathers all Solution Case Studies, which are case studies on technical solutions brought to adhesives & sealants formulators .
Switching to non-phthalate plasticizers in polysulfide sealants
Thanks to its compatibility with polysulfide, Hexamoll® DINCH, the non phthalate plasticizer, is perfectly adapted for use in polysulfide sealants.

Renewable Polyurethane Adhesives and Sealants
Thanks to a breakthrough technology, soybean oil-based polyols, Dow Polyurethane developed innovative renewable PU prepolymers grades to specifically address this challenge. Bio-based prepolymers can be designed with a variety of specifications to achieve the desired level of performance.
How to Improve Both Adhesion and Aging Performance of Crack filler and Mopping Formulations?
Due to an external use, a lot of building and pavement applications require regular maintenance activities involving mopping (roofing) or crack fillers (sealants) application. Traditional related formulations are elastomer modified asphalt based such as SBS elastomers.

Controlled Reactivity Polyurethane Prepolymers: speed-up the production of your adhesives in moisture curing applications
Dow technology (Controlled Reactivity Prepolymers) enables faster green strength build and lower volatile organic compounds, while providing a more robust cure profile across varying temperature and relative humidity conditions., providing competitve advantage to polyurethane adhesives formulators.
SBS as a Substituting Option for Chloroprene Rubber in Solvent Borne Contact Adhesives

Bonding of door panel and instrument panel (Solvent base TPU adhesive)
This substrate is previously heat activated at 70°C (hot air), and then the foamed PVC foil is added and vacuum is applied for 10 seconds. The edges are bonded manually by the operator.
Get Improved Road Maintenance Devices Adhesion
In construction areas, the installation of traffic control products such as markers or delineators for the maintenance of traffic represents a strong challenge for the end-user who needs to apply the adapted adhesive. They have to cope with the sidewalk / pavement characteristics in order to provide a strong contact-type bond while absorbing impacts and maintaining low-level damage to the pavement surface.
Discover an Excellent Chloroprene Alternative in the Footwear and D-I-Y Industries
Polychloroprene is a versatile synthetic rubber usually used to make contact adhesives. Supplies of such a material are being significantly reduced with some grades of polychloroprene being discontinued altogether. As a result, adhesives formulators have to count on an alternative allowing for equal performances while being cost-efficient.
Add "Green Strength" to your PU Reactive Hot Melts
Polyurethanes (PU) Reactive Hot Melts are recognized as one of the preferred Solvent-Free adhesives solutions, challenging PU water-based dispersions in a wide range of applications, where adhesion performance on complex geometries and energy efficiency are key drivers.
Renewable TPUs For Textile & Footwear
The Textile & Footwear industries, driven by new environmental companies' corporate policies and regulations, favour the usage of renewable-sourced polymers solutions meeting increasing market needs towards sustainable polymers that minimize the use of petrochemical resources, while ensuring optimum performance.
