Power Adhesives Tecbond 902B Biodegradable Pressure Sensitive Hot Melt Pillows

Low Viscosity Tecbond 902B Biodegradable PSA Hot Melt for Spray Applications

Power Adhesives Tecbond 902B is a biodegradable, pressure sensitive hot melt adhesive in convenient pillow form, optimized for both spray and bead dispensing. Its low viscosity and high tack make it ideal for packaging, product assembly, and upholstery applications. Designed for use with bulk hot melt systems and pneumatic spray applicators, Tecbond 902B delivers smooth, consistent flow while minimizing nozzle clogging and maintenance. This versatile adhesive offers excellent heat resistance, a flexible bond line, and dependable adhesion to paper, cardboard, wood, fabric, metal, and select plastics. FDA 175.105 compliant, it supports high-speed manufacturing while aligning with sustainable production goals.

Ideal Applications for Tecbond 902B Biodegradable PSA Hot Melt

• Furniture & Upholstery: High tack and consistent flow for demanding production schedules.
• Mattress Assembly: Combines flexibility with holding power for secure, long-lasting adhesion.
• Carton Closing: Creates strong, tamper-resistant seals that outperform staples and tapes.
• Tray Assembly: Flexible, durable bonds for complex folds and challenging substrates.
• Packaging Inserts: Keeps inserts fixed securely to protect products and maintain presentation.
• Point-of-Sale Displays: Bonds cleanly without impacting retail display aesthetics.
• XY Plotter Applications: Low-viscosity formula supports precise, fine-line adhesive placement.

Biodegradable Advantages

Formulated with 45% bio-based content, Tecbond 902B meets leading environmental certifications, including EN13432, ASTM D6400, ASTM D6866, and ASTM D6954. Designed for responsible disposal, it naturally degrades under exposure to oxygen, UV light, and heat, eliminating the formation of microplastics or harmful residues. After the polymer breaks down, microorganisms fully consume the remaining material, supporting a clean, environmentally safe end of life.

For best results, store Tecbond 902B in its original packaging, protected from direct sunlight, at temperatures below 86°F (30°C) to maintain performance and shelf life.
