PURETHANE™ A 1090

PURETHANE™ A 1090 is a water-based polyurethane dispersion adhesive for clear, durable flexible packaging laminations. It bonds effectively to corona-treated packaging films, including oriented polypropylene (OPP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polyethylene (PE), while supporting stable coefficient of friction (COF) for reliable web handling, stacking, and conveying.

The adhesive can be run as a single-component system for low- to medium-demand packaging. For structures that require greater bond strength or improved resistance to heat, moisture, and aggressive contents, PURETHANE™ A 1090 can be crosslinked with PURETHANE™ C-CAT 104. Its combination of laminate clarity, adhesion, and converting performance makes it well suited for pouches and film-to-film structures used for snacks, meats, vegetables, and other packaged goods.
