INTRODUCTION  

VAE Emulison DA-102H is a non-plasticized aqueous milky  white copolymer dispersion based on vinyl acetate and  ethylene. After evaporation of its water content,  DA-102H forms a flexible film with best adhesive  properties for broad applications.  

In generally, DA-102H is used as general  adhesive for packaging, bookbinding, and bonding for  plastic films, coated papers. Furthermore, DA-102H is broadly used as a  particularly suitable base emulsion for the formulation  of adhesives for difficult substrates, such as lacquered  surfaces, foils and plastic films in the packaging and  paper industry.  

DA-102H is also an excellent base emulsion for  floor-, wall- or ceiling adhesives.  It shows good resistance against aging, light or  saponification. As a result, the durability of your products could be enhanced with usage of DA-102H  and suitable applicative industrial formulations.  Besides, DA-102H is very friendly product for our  environment.  

From the viewpoint of industrial applications, the  compatibility of raw materials is considered important  to manufacturers. Compatibility with different tackifiers, plasticizers,  solvents and extenders is generally good, although  this has to be checked in each individual case of  course.

RECOMMENDED APPLICATIONS  

As mentioned before, DA-102H provides a soft  and flexible film to porous and non porous substrates  of all kind of common plastic materials.  

If at least one substrate is porous, aqueous  formulations can be used for directly bonding the  substrates, while plastic/plastic, film/film or  film/lacquered surfaces afford application of the  emulsion (or its formulation) onto one substrate and  intermediately drying, followed by sealing the other  non-polar substrate. Depending on the machinery, of course such a sealing process could be used also  bonding non-polar substrates to polar ones.  

The popular use of DA-102H is for bonding difficult substrates, like  

-plastic- (specially PVC-) or metal films to substrates of  all kind  -printed paper, lacquered paper and board  

-plastic materials to porous or even non-porous  substrates  

-ceramic tiles to cementitious substrates  

As DA-102H is compatible with cement, we can  reinforce waterproofing capability of cementitious  compounds formulated with our product.

SAFETY & STORAGE  

In general, DA-102H is considered safe for its  intended use. However, as this class of products  always contains minor amount of residual vinyl acetate  monomer, adequate ventilation is recommended in  rooms where DA-102H is handled. Generally when  working with polymer emulsions, protective clothes, gloves and also goggles should be used. Splashes on the skin or in the eyes should immediately be removed  by irrigation with clean water.  

DA-102H should be stored in sheltered areas at  temperatures between 5 and 40 ℃; do never store  under freezing conditions. Opened containers should be closed soon to prevent skinning. It is recommended  to use the emulsion within 6 months. Finished  products manufactured from polymer emulsions  usually also require preservation.
