Foam-Bonding

​Comfortable seating and furniture are often the product of an elaborate production process. Make it stick – with our adhesive raw materials for the manufacturing of mattresses, upholstery and office furniture.

Gluing upholstery foam to various carrier materials requires special adhesives. Once applied, the adhesive must not penetrate the open-pored material. That’s why the foam-bonding dispersion coagulates while being sprayed onto the respective surface. 
 

Specialized adhesive polymers are used in the production of seating, sofas and office furniture. These foam and upholstery adhesives exhibit high levels of fast-acting wet strength. They must also be able to quickly absorb great tension and form a soft, unnoticeable glue line. In this way, they ensure high productivity, fast processing and easy handling. Explore our solutions for furniture adhesives!

Requirements for our spray adhesives for upholstery and foam:

  • High initial tack
  • Long open time, allowing assembly up to 20 minutes after spray-coating
  • High “green strength”
  • Soft and elastic adhesive line
  • Good adhesion to common substrates
  • No use of solvents: VOC, FA and APEO

 

Highlight products

Acronal® 3710
Acronal® 3710 is a blending component, especially suitable for the manufacture of one or two component aqueous foam adhesives for mattresses and upholstery in combination with Polychloroprene- or Polyurethane dispersions, e.g. Luphen® D DS 3548.
Luphen® D DS 3548
Luphen® D DS 3548 is a 45% aqueous dispersion of a partly aromatic polyesterpolyurethane elastomer. The formed film can be activated by heat at 60-65 °C enabling the manufacture of heatsealing adhesives. Luphen® D DS 3548 has a prolonged hot-tack life.
Acronal® 5400
Acronal® 5400 is a dispersion of a styrene acrylic copolymer for cementitious, flexible waterproofing membranes (in- & outdoor) beneath tiles with good crack-bridging properties.
Sustainability meets Adhesives
Safe and sustainable chemicals are key to reducing emissions and enabling circularity.  The adhesive industry needs to move quickly, due to a rising number of upcoming regulations emanating from the European Green Deal. BASF can help you navigate these dynamics – with its adhesive chemistry, application, and regulations expertise.
Technical Information: Preservation of Polymer Dispersions
Covering the selection of biocides for preservation to proper handling and storage techniques, ensuring the stability and quality of water-based polymer dispersions throughout their shelf life. Whether you are involved in production, packaging, transportation, or storage of polymer dispersions, this information will help you maintain optimal microbiological quality and ensure the longevity of your products.
Technical Information: Handling and Storage of Polymer Dispersions
Polymer dispersions are increasingly processed in various industries. Bulk delivery by road or rail tanker is more convenient for processing facilities. This Technical Information provides an overview of the advantages of bulk delivery and requirements for storage tanks. It also describes measures for handling bulk deliveries of polymer dispersions.
