PSA Hot Melts for Footwear
The pressure-sensitive hot-melt adhesive grade T181 is engineered for bonding foam components in athletic footwear, delivering instant tack and a flexible, durable bond that survives repeated flexing and impact. Supplied on easy-peel release paper or as a self-supporting meltable film, T181 lets shoemakers choose the format that best fits their lamination line—roll-fed or die-cut. Both versions activate at 150-180 °C, cure fast, and stay elastic down to –20 °C, keeping midsoles, insoles and collar foams firmly in place without added weight or bulk.
Description
Key features
PSA Hot Melts for Footwear T181 is a footwear-grade, SBC-based pressure-sensitive hot-melt specially compounded for high-speed lamination of PU, EVA and memory-foam packages found in modern athletic shoes. The adhesive appears as a clean, white-transparent solid that melts to a water-clear film, giving designers total freedom over visible bond lines and dark-coloured midsoles. At 170 °C its Brookfield viscosity sits at a machine-friendly 1 800 cPs, a value that guarantees smooth, non-tailing flow through slot, spiral-spray or roll-coat heads while still being high enough to prevent soak-in on open-cell foams. A sharp, repeatable softening point of 80-90 °C delivers quick activation at standard hot-melt stations yet resists cold-flow and edge-ooze during summer storage or container shipping. Once cooled, T181 forms an aggressive tack that builds to a permanent bond; peel values on roughened EVA exceed 12 N mm⁻¹ even after 72 h at 38 °C/95 % RH, so collar and tongue foams stay locked in place through thousands of flex cycles. The SBC rubber backbone keeps the joint flexible down to –20 °C and stable to 80 °C, passing DIN 53543 fatigue and SATRA TM 411 dynamic creep tests without cracking or delamination. Being 100 % solids, zero-solvent and REACH-compliant, T181 supports VOC-free workshops and easy recycling of footwear waste; both release-paper and meltable-film packages are available for zero-residue application. In short, PSA Hot Melts for Footwear T181 offers footwear manufacturers a clean-running, high-performance solution that bonds foam firmly, processes smoothly and meets tomorrow's sustainability targets.
