From soles on shoes to tyres on cars...
Solvents are used in domestic and industrial adhesives and are particularly valuable when a high performance is required such as metal-to-metal bonding, and in the manufacture of everyday durable products such as footwear and car tyres.
Drying time is a critical attribute for most adhesives, as is staying power. An adhesive that dries too quickly, before pieces can be fitted properly, is a problem, as is an adhesive that takes too long to dry. Adhesives typically are made with solvent blends that allow optimal performance for each application, from home use to high-speed manufacturing.
Tetra hydro furane is used as a component for adhesive for PVC Pipes.
