Why use Glu-X/Spray-X?
- To improve glue bond performance.
- To eliminate or reduce problems.
- To increase revenue-related benefits.
Who uses our products?
- Manufacturers of plywood and panel composites including Structural and Decorative Building Panels.
- Formulators of adhesives based on Phenol Formaldehyde and Urea Formaldehyde, Polyvinyl Acetate and on other Synthetic and Natural Polymers.
- New and developing agri-fiber pilot plants.
Plywood and Panel Problems Sometimes Associated with Improper Extender
- Mixing Difficulties - Especially Lumps
- High Water Requirement - Adds to Dryer Load
- Improper and Inconsistent Viscosity
- Dry-Out/Over-Penetration
- Poor Tack-Flow Balance
- Poor Adhesive Coverage
- Excessive Blows
- Excessive Downgrades (Bond Failure, etc.)
- Excessive Tool Wear ( From High Ash Content)
- Inconsistent Performance and Analysis
- Excessive Wash Water Volume (Measure It!)
- Difficult Equipment Clean Up (Time It!)
- Poor Filter Flow (Check It!)
What are some of the Operational, Economical and Ecological Benefits?
- Reduce Emissions Thru Glue Conservation
- Improve Prepress Tack (Tack-Flow Balance)
- Reduce Press Times Thru Glue Conservation and More Reactivity
- Reduce Water Requirement and Dryer Energy (More Water in Veneer)
- E-Z Mixing - Minimize Lumping
- Stable Viscosity (Pot-floor Life)
- Penetration-Dry Out Control
- Reduced Downgrades (Bond Failure, etc.)
- Reduced Blows (Documented 1.2% Difference in 2-Week Plant Test)
- Low Ash - Tool Wear Savings
- Consistent Analysis and Performance
- Faster Equipment Cleanup (Time It!)
- Less Wash Water Volume (Measure It!)
- Recycle Filter Flow (Check It!)
