Application
Shoe Making Materials
Shoes are exposed to all weather conditions and have to bear the most diverse range of stresses. United Industry is the solution for superior adhesion in the manufacture of shoes.
Where Hot Melt Is Used In A Shoe
Thermoplastic adhesive powder is used primarily for durable adhesion of toe puffs, shoe lining materials and soles.
Polyamide resin is specially designed for vamp adhesive.
Hot melt adhesive film is a good choice for seamless construction and other applications.
Polyester and polyurethane granule, powder and film are ideally suited for bonding sensitive substrates.
Material Range For This Application
Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU)
United TPU adhesive powder is high end, combining extreme elasticity with a soft touch, leading to a transfer that will outlast the garment. TPU also has a wide heated temperature range in process.
Thermoplastic Polyester (PES)
United PES adhesives are in big demand for applications needing high bonding strength and water wash resistance. PES is recommended where elasticity is not so much required.
Thermoplastic Polyamide (PA)
United PA adhesives are designed for the highest bonding strength requirement. With an easy process and a wide application range, PA embodies an outstanding economy principle of cost.
Products For Shoe Making Materials
Shoe Making Materials - FAQ
What do you supply for back counters and toe puffs?
Polyamide back counter adhesive and co-polyester counter adhesive. Both are supplied for durable adhesion of toe puffs, lining materials and soles.
Which product is used for vamp bonding?
Polyamide resin is specially designed for vamp adhesive.
Can we use film instead of powder?
Yes. Hot melt adhesive film is a good choice for seamless construction, and TPU film is used for pressing glue on the net cloth of sports shoes.
What is the melting point of your shoe grade TPU resin?
The thermoplastic polyurethane resin melts between 90 and 180 degrees C with a hardness of 72 to 93A. Please contact us for the technical data sheet.
