Learn About Hot Melt Adhesives at Two-Day Short Course
MINNEAPOLIS - The Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC) is offering a two-day short course about hot melt adhesives on October 21-22, 2013, in Minneapolis. The event is co-located with the 2013 ASC Fall Convention, which takes place October 21-23.
This course presents formulation strategies based on application and performance requirements for a variety of hot melt adhesive markets. Participants will learn how plasticizers, tackifiers and waxes are used to enhance base polymers for optimized processing and properties, and how to evaluate thermo-mechanical and mechanical behavior of hot melts and resulting bonded assemblies.
