As one of the global leaders in inks, coatings and adhesives for packaging and labelling applications, UFlex treads on the path of continuous development and delivery of pioneering products for the packaging industry. The Chemicals Business of UFlex has recently acquired a patent for ‘Solvent free pigmented adhesive and a process for its preparation’ (Patent No 406417). With this patent, the chemicals business of UFlex has once again demonstrated its commitment to 'Harvesting Innovation.'
This patent has been awarded to the company by the Government of India in accordance with the provisions of the Patents Act, 1970, for a period of 20 years. The company adds this patent to develop innovative and sustainable solution to its growing list of leading-edge products.
The present disclosure relates to a two component adhesive composition and the process for its preparation. The adhesive composition of the present disclosure is solvent-free and works well on existing solvent less lamination machines. It helps reduce the use of white ink, thus significantly reducing costs. The process for the preparation of the adhesive composition is simple, efficient, solvent-free and environment friendly.
Presence of high content of volatile organic solvents in solvent-based conventional adhesives is detrimental to the environment and is energy-intensive, thereby increasing overall costs. With the development of this solvent-free white adhesive, the customer gets the freedom to be green and cost-effective at the same time.
