VULKEM® 616
A general purpose sealant suited for the cargo container and truck
trailer body.
It is tough, non brittle and bonds firmly to aluminum, wood or fiberglass.
Prevents water penetration in fillet joints used in flat repairs.
VULKEM® 626
An elastromeric sealant ideal for moving joints. It exhibits excellent
adhesion
characteristics and is widely used in the boating, log home and railcar
industry where a
waterproof environment is critical.
VULKEM® 636
An excellent smooth finish sealant with high gloss properties. It posses
many of the
superior sealing and adhesion properties of Vulkem 616 and 626. In
addition, it has low
modulus properties which makes it well suited for high impact and continous
vibration
environments.

Eliminating
Hot Melt Adhesive Char
INNOVATIVE HOT MELT-ON DEMAND
SYSTEM PROCESS
VIRTUALLY ELIMINATES CHARRING
PROBLEMS
CHAR...IT
PLUGS NOZZLES, INHIBITS BOND QUALITY, REDUCES PLANT PRODUCTIVITY.
IT’S TROUBLESOME. IT’S PERSISTENT. BUT IT IS NOT INEVITABLE.
As heat is applied to solid adhesive,
complex polymers begin to break down and degrade, and continue to do so
as temperature and time increase. Maintaining adhesives at high temperatures
in the presence of oxygen causes charring. The answer is clear . Control
the heat. Control the presence of oxygen at high adhesive temperatures.
Don’t melt it until you need it.
THE DYNATEC ADVANTAGE
1.Unique
melt-on-demand process virtually eliminates charring problems
2.Specific
models can be expanded rather than replaced.
3.Melt
grids provide higher adhesive delivery rates with less power consumption.
4.Seperate
gear pumps for each output.
5.Precision
metered outputs.
6.No
flushing of system required
ITW
Dynatec designed the solution accordingly, creating the industry’s only
First/
InFirst/Out Melt-On-Demand System.
It’s unique process that provides controlled gradual heating and
prevents char formation by maintaining three essential conditions...temperature
stability in each melt zone; reduction of heat transfer from one zone to
another and isolation of adhesives at high temperatures from oxygen.
