How to Use Adhesive?

Glue Usage and Application
Glue usage requires both surfaces to be clean. In emulsion glues, the small particle size allows the materials being bonded to adhere effectively. General-purpose glue types are commonly used for furniture bonding or laminate covering. Glues can also be thinned, which is necessary for certain coating applications. When using diluted glue, maintaining its density becomes crucial.
How to Apply Glue?
Both surfaces must be clean for successful glue application. If either surface is unclean, it can cause issues during gluing. Only one surface should be glued at a time. A brush is the preferred method for applying glue. However, a scraping tool should be used for formica bonding. Porous surfaces require more time to apply glue; it should be bonded immediately after application and left until it sets. Setting times can vary, but glue may take up to 2 hours to cure. Maintaining room temperature between 10-15 degrees Celsius during the curing process is essential. The characteristics of the surfaces being bonded should be considered, which will determine whether or not to thin the glue. Thinning is generally not necessary for thick surfaces; if done, the amount should not exceed 10%. (Our glues are ready-to-use; we do not recommend thinning.)
Types of Glues
Glue varieties can be categorized as follows:
- Mitreapel Membran Press Glue 1K/2K: Designed for automatic balloon and vacuum membrane machines, used for PVC membrane bonding. (Note: This is a PU glue, so the term "emulsion" should be avoided.)
- Apel Super Massiv/White Glue: Suitable for general use, with a wide range of applications from wood bonding to flooring and solid products. It also serves as a filler adhesive. It has a strong bonding effect.
- Mitreapel MDF Profile Glue: With its superior bonding strength, it offers advantages when bonding different types of surfaces. It is in D3 form and falls under the emulsion glue category. (It becomes transparent upon curing)
- Apel D3 Super Skeleton Glue: Part of a high-strength glue range, it is suitable for wood glues. Its large format prevents issues during use. (It becomes transparent upon curing)
- Apel D3 Skeleton Glue: A transparent PVAc-based wood glue. (It becomes transparent upon curing and requires additional information)
All these glue varieties are available through Beta Kimya.
