What Are Water-Based Adhesives?
Water-based adhesives come as either a pre-mixed solution or a powder that must then be mixed with water. When the water evaporates or gets absorbed by the substrate, the adhesive is left behind. There are four main types of water-based adhesives: vegetable, casein, resin, and latex.
Vegetable adhesive is often used by the paper industry. It’s known to be durable with material like paper, but it’s more susceptible to break down than other water-based adhesive types. Casein adhesive is more resistant to water than vegetable adhesive. It’s primarily used for bottling. Resin adhesive dries clear and is sometimes used for paper, as well as for wood and plastic. Lastly, latex adhesive is primarily used for stamps, envelopes, fabric and leather.
