ELERO® One-shot Powdered Resin Wood Glue

ELERO® One-shot Powdered Resin Wood Glue is a powder resin glue, which must be dissolved in water prior to use. When used with the hardener, it provides an excellent adhesive for any woodworking.

SPECIFICATIONS (TYPICAL): 

DISSOLVING THE RESIN:

Prior to use, the resin is mixed with water to convert into solution. A mechanical stirrer may be used for this purpose. With high speed mixer all the water may be placed first and then resin may be added, while mixer is running.If low speed mixer is used, it is better to make a homogenous mix of the resin with about 1/2 of water, and rest of the water may be added later.

The temperature of the water may be 20 – 30℃, because with lower water temperature, mixing is time consuming. Reconstitution can be carried out in simple mixing equipment as follows:

1. Take all the water in the mixer. The water temperature should not be below 30℃

2. Add required amount of resin powder and mix until a homogenous solution is obtained.

3. Once a homogenous solution has been obtained, other additives and hardener are added.

TYPICAL GLUE FORMULATIONS:

PRESSING CONDITIONS

The pressing time would depend upon the press temperature, glue mix reactivity, wood density, veneer thickness and moisture content of the veneers. The temperature for good glue setting normally varies between 90 – 120°C. Pressure would depend upon the wood quality, being higher for hard wood species as compared to soft wood.

ACTIVE PERIOD

The active period is about 6 hours by using our hardner (CA100). Other modifiers and curing agents will be different.

AGING TIME

The maximum of aging time depends on the amount of glue applied, type of wood, temperature, relative humidity, and airflow speed (ventilation conditions and displacement). Under normal circumstances, pressure must have glue or sticky.

GLUE CONSUMPTION

The glue is spread to one surface. The veneer surface should be clean and free from dust and other contamination. The consumption of glue generally would be 140‐200g/m² per square meter.

STORAGE

The powder resin should be stored in the original bags in a cool place protected from heat. When stored at high temperature, the storage stability will impair considerably. Care should be taken that powder does not absorb moisture and water.

The bags, which have been opened, should be carefully closed before storage. When stored in original bags at 20°C shelf life would be not less than one year.
