Pressure-sensitive adhesives are designed to bond under light pressure without requiring heat, water, or chemical activation during end use. Their performance depends on the balance of tack, peel behavior, cohesion, softness, and processability inside the complete adhesive formulation.
Core Performance Considerations
- Initial tack and wetting behavior
- Holding power and cohesive strength
- Peel performance on target substrates
- Processing stability and formulation compatibility
Why SIS Matters
In many label, tape, hygiene, medical, and specialty packaging applications, SIS is selected because it can provide a useful processing and performance balance in hot-melt pressure-sensitive adhesive systems. Different grades may be chosen depending on target tack level, downstream substrate, converting speed, and finished-product requirements.
Application-Oriented Selection
There is no single best grade for every adhesive project. Material choice should be based on end use, substrate type, formulation design, and manufacturing process.
