A Fresh Look at the Remarkable Microsphere Adhesive

How many times can you peel and re-adhere a sticker coated with a microsphere pressure sensitive adhesive? Almost as many times as there are ways to use these remarkable adhesives.

Microsphere PSA technology has untouched potential for use in a wide range of applications. Think of the possibilities: Product decorations, wall graphics, temporary signage, and custom-printed electronic skins for cell phones, laptops or tables. They can add a whole other dimension to advertising pieces and are ideal for use in arts and crafts. They also provide a convenient, cost-effective way to easily re-seal bags of food, such as cookies, for lasting freshness.  And this list is only a beginning.

The breadth of potential applications led Franklin Adhesives & Polymers to develop an ultra-versatile line of microsphere adhesives, under the Micronax name, that offer a range of tack, peel and sheer, with different viscosities, pH value, shelf life, etc. We also can easily customize Micronax adhesives to meet the specific requirements of virtually any application you can envision that requires a highly repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive.

Can you add to our list of possible applications for microsphere adhesives. What’s the most creative way you’ve used – or seem them used – in the past? In what new ways can you foresee them being used?
