Introduction to EVA hot melt adhesive

EVA hot melt adhesive is a solvent-free, water-free, 100% solid fusible polymer. It is solid at room temperature and becomes a liquid adhesive that can flow and has a certain viscosity when heated and melted to a certain degree. It is light brown translucent or white after melting.

 

EVA hot melt adhesive is mainly made of the following four components: base resin, namely EVA resin, tackifying resin, wax, antioxidant, and a small amount of filler can be added in some occasions to increase the gap filling and reduce costs.

 

EVA hot melt adhesive has the following characteristics:

(1). It has fast curing, low pollution, strong adhesion, and the adhesive layer has certain flexibility, hardness, and toughness;

(2). After the adhesive liquid is applied to the adherend and cooled and solidified, the adhesive layer can be heated and melted again to become an adhesive body and then bonded to the adherend, with a certain degree of re-adhesion;

(3). When using, just heat and melt the hot melt adhesive into the required liquid state and apply it to the adherend. After pressing, the bonding and curing can be completed within a few seconds, and the hardening, cooling and drying can be achieved within a few minutes.

 

The type of EVA determines the cohesive strength, flexibility, adhesion to the substrate and processability of the hot melt adhesive. For hot melt adhesive, the following properties of EVA should be paid attention to: molecular weight and its distribution, vinyl acetate (VA) content, crystallinity, softening point, melting point, melt index (MI) and melt viscosity, etc., because these properties directly affect the various properties of hot melt adhesive.

 

As the melt index of EVA increases, its strength, hardness, softening point and viscosity all decrease regularly; and the more VA content in EVA, the greater the elongation at break and the lower the hardness. In addition, when the VA content exceeds 30%, although the adhesion to polar and various non-porous non-polar substrates is improved, this EVA polymer is incompatible with wax, which is a point to be noted when designing hot melt adhesive formulas. In a formula, it is often necessary to use EVA with different MI or EVA with different VA content to obtain satisfactory comprehensive performance.

Introduction to the production process of vinyl acetate

Vinyl acetate is a colorless flammable liquid with a strong odor. Its vapor is irritating to the eyes. It is insoluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. Vinyl acetate monomer is flammable and reacts rapidly with chlorine, bromine, and ozone. There are two production process routes for vinyl acetate monomer: the ethylene method and the acetylene method. The acetylene method can be divided into a liquid phase method and a gas phase method, and the ethylene method can also be divided into a liquid phase method and a gas phase method.

 

Acetylene gas phase method: desulfurized and dephosphinated calcium carbide acetylene and acetic acid are used as raw materials, the catalyst is zinc acetate-activated carbon (15:100), and a promoter is added. The reaction temperature is 170~200℃, the pressure is atmospheric pressure, and the space velocity is 200~400https://www.elephchem.comh. Reaction results: acetic acid single-pass conversion rate is 25~40%, acetylene single-pass conversion rate is 12~16%. The selectivity of VAM is 92~96% for acetylene and 95~98% for acetic acid. The total yield of VAM is 97~98% for acetic acid and 92~96% for acetylene.

 

The catalysts for the ethylene gas phase process are mainly Pd-Au, Pd-Pt and Pd-Cd supported catalysts, and the carriers are mainly silica gel and alumina. The two main factors affecting the catalyst are the coordination ability of Pd and the ability of acetic acid or acetate to oxidize Pd(0) to Pd(II). The single-pass conversion rate of ethylene in this process is 8~10%, the single-pass conversion rate of acetic acid is 8~20%, and the VAM selectivity based on ethylene is 90~94%.

 

In the past few years, the acetylene process has been gradually replaced by the ethylene process due to the high cost of raw materials. However, with the continuous rise in oil prices, the acetylene process has regained economic vitality, especially the acetylene process using natural gas as raw material. At present, the acetylene process still occupies an important position in China. The ethylene gas phase process occupies a dominant position in the market due to its good processability and economic performance. At present, the ethylene production technology in China accounts for more than 55% of the total national production capacity.
