Aquabond is a new water-based hot melt, screen printable adhesive that does not require messy or time consuming powders. Aquabond is a one-part adhesive and is the best choice for doing flock transfers. Aquabond can be used as an adhesive for most types of heat transfers and fabrics.

TECHNICAL DETAILS

Screen Mesh: 30 to 110inch (10T to 44T cm). Individual tests should be conducted to determine the thickness of adhesive required for particular application.

Stencil: Water Resistant direct emulsion.

Drying: Aquabond should be dried by air or through a hot air dryer. The ideal method for drying/curing Aquabond is as follows: 1) allow all the water to evaporate from the Aquabond print. 2) heat cure the dried print through a conveyor dryer at 320°F (160°C) until the Aquabond melts and forms a film.

Retarder: If ink is drying too fast in the screen and causing screen blocking, Aqualife retarder may be added to slow down the drying time. Normally up to 5% addition of Aqualife retarder will be adequate.

Cleanup: Wash with water immediately after printing. Soap may be used.
