Sun Chemical launches SunLam QA-8000+HA450, a solvent-free ultra-low monomer (ULM) adhesive. It is designed for packaging producers in search of high-performance applications that offer a sustainable alternative to existing solvent-based adhesives.
Officially titled SunLam QA-8000+HA450, the new adhesive is part of Sun Chemical’s proprietary ULM technology. The adhesive extends its capabilities to meet the needs of flexible packaging manufacturers producing high-end applications such as extended boiling-pasteurisation, hot-filling, low-retort packaging and products that require improved chemical resistance in acidic or alcoholic environments.
