EVA
The Ethylene-Vinyl-Acetate product series ROWALIT® 300 is characterized by its products with different vinylacetate content. This determines primarily the properties of the product. Our chart Influence of MFI and VA-Content reflects this behaviour.
Usually the ROWALIT® 300 series covers a melting range of 55-85°C.
Due to its low processing temperatures and high elasticity, typical applications of EVA-hotmelt adhesives are:
- Shoe interlinings
- Shoe caps
- Shoe soles
- Leather bondings
- Construction materials
- Foam composites
