History
Polyurethane (PUR) products have been used as adhesives for many years.
Their ease of application, durability, flexibility, and range of adhesion
make them ideal adhesive products in a wide range of constructions.
The introduction of polyurethane reactive hot melts (PUR hot melts or
reactive hot melts) has added a new dimension to polyurethane use. Now
an instant bond is formed (by the loss of heat as with the use of
conventional hot melt) which later crosslinks into a urethane material
with better heat and water resistance than was previously possible.
