801 PVA Adhesive – universal polyvinyl acetate (PVA) adhesive for bonding porous materials such as wood, paper, cardboard, fabric, leather, and some types of plastic. Used in construction, repairs, woodworking, crafts, and model-making. Water-based adhesive, non-toxic, dries quickly, forms a transparent or semi-transparent bond. Suitable for indoor use, offers good adhesion and flexibility of joints. Manufacturer: Uzbekistan (likely; exact producer may vary).
Features
- Type: Polyvinyl acetate adhesive (PVA).
- Purpose: Bonding porous materials (wood, paper, cardboard, fabric, leather).
- Application: Manual application (brush, spatula, applicator).
- Weight: 0.85 kg.
- Consumption: ~100–200 g/m² (depends on material and layer thickness).
- Drying Time:
- Initial set: 30–60 minutes.
- Full drying: 6–24 hours (depends on temperature and humidity).
- Properties:
- Non-toxic, safe for indoor use.
- Forms a semi-transparent or transparent bond after drying.
- Can be diluted with water to adjust viscosity.
- Limited water resistance (standard PVA is not waterproof).
- Shelf Life: 12 months in a dry place at +5°C to +30°C.
- Application Temperature: +5°C to +30°C.
Advantages
- Easy application, convenient for household and professional use.
- Fast drying and strong bond on porous materials.
- Non-toxic, safe for children (e.g., in crafts).
- Easily washed off with water before drying.
- Affordable price, especially in the Uzbek market.
Application
- Bonding wood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard in woodworking.
- Crafts, paper crafts, cardboard work, decoupage.
- Fixing decorative elements (flock, grass, sand) in modeling.
- Used as a primer when diluted with water (e.g., walls before wallpapering).
- Limitations:
- Not suitable for non-porous surfaces (metal, glass, PE/PP plastic).
- Not recommended for outdoor use or humid environments without additional protection.
- Limited ability to fill gaps (for this, epoxy or polyurethane adhesives are better).
Instructions
- Preparation: Clean surfaces from dust, dirt, grease. Ensure they are dry.
- Application: Apply adhesive in a thin layer using a brush, spatula, or applicator. For large surfaces, dilute with water (up to 5–10%).
- Bonding: Press surfaces tightly together, slightly move for even adhesive distribution. Use clamps for a strong joint.
- Cleaning: Remove excess adhesive with a damp cloth before drying.
- Drying: Let the adhesive dry for 6–24 hours for full strength. Avoid loads during this time.
