What is BS EN 12704 - Aqueous adhesives about?
BS EN 12704 is an international standard used for adhesives for paper and board. BS EN 12704 specifies a test method to determine the foam formation or air entrainment during rapid stirring of aqueous adhesives with a maximum viscosity of 10 000 MPa·s at room temperature determined in accordance with EN 12092.
Who is BS EN 12704 - Aqueous adhesives for?
BS EN 12704 on Adhesives for paper and board is useful for:
- Packing of materials
- Manufacturing cardboard boxes, cartons
- Entities involved in disposing of sanitary materials
- Food industries
Why should you use BS EN 12704 - Aqueous adhesives?
Aqueous adhesives are water-based adhesives formulated using a mixture of high molecular weight polymer emulsions.
BS EN 12704 specifies the test methods, test procedures and test equipment. This test method is useful in determining the foam formation of aqueous adhesives. The foam formation is determined by calculating the difference between the initial and final volumes of the adhesive. Using BS EN 12704, you can assess or manufacture better quality aqueous adhesives useful in packing and disposing of sanitary products.
