  • Patent number: 10471459
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for preparing and applying adhesive, comprising a feed unit, a preparing unit, and an application unit, wherein the feed unit is used to feed a basic component of the adhesive and/or of at least one additive, wherein the preparing unit effects continuous mixing of the basic component of the adhesive with the one or more fed additives to form the prepared adhesive and continuous conveying of the prepared adhesive, wherein the adhesive prepared in such a way is conveyed from the preparing unit into the application unit and can be applied to a workpiece by the application unit.

  • Patent number: 10407596
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a UV-curable hot-melt adhesive for laminating transparent films, in particular, on molded bodies made of wood materials that are coated with melamine or PVC. The hot-melt adhesives contain: at least one UV-curable urethane (meth)acrylate, wherein the urethane (meth)acrylate can be obtained by converting an NCO-functional polyurethane prepolymer with a molar excess of hydroxy and/or amine-modified (meth)acrylates; at least one (meth)acrylate monomer or oligomer, wherein the at least one (meth)acrylate monomer and/or oligomer comprises an acid-modified (meth)acrylate with an acid value of 50 to 400 mg KOH/g; and at least one photoinitiator. Other aspects of the present invention are methods for laminating a film onto a molded body using said hot-melt adhesives, and to the composite materials produced in this manner.

  • Patent number: 9957420
    Abstract: Composite of shaped bodies made from wooden materials with film-shaped substrates, wherein a surface of the shaped body has a first layer comprising a crosslinked radiation-curing hot-melt adhesive, said layer is covered with a second adhesive layer of a hot-melt adhesive, and said second adhesive layer is adhesively bonded to a film-shaped substrate. A method for producing composite shaped bodies of this type is provided, in which method, as one step, the surface is coated with a UV-crosslinkable hot-melt adhesive, and which method makes in-line production of the composite bodies possible.
