Covinax 289-01 DEV

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Covinax 289-01 DEV is an APE-free, formaldehyde-free permanent adhesive designed for cold temperature applications requiring high peel and tack adhesion. Covinax 289-01 DEV is transfer coatable on most commercial grade silicone liners and specifically formulated to coat on Gravure, Slot-Die and Roll coaters. Labels and tapes utilizing Covinax 289-01 DEV will adhere well to LSE (Low Surface Energy) substrates including LDPE, HDPE and BOPP. Dry films are clear and will not yellow due to age or UV absorption.
