Proteinaceous adhesive composition with tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol

摘要

A proteinaceous adhesive composition in which a dry mix comprised of protein, solubilizing agents and fillers is added to water containing tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol at the time of use. The adhesive composition is especially useful in joining untreated and fire-retardant-treated porous substrates to fire-retardant-treated porous substrates as well as joining a porous substrate to a relatively non-porous substrate and provides advantages of good bond strength and increased assembly time.
