102h Vinyl Acetate-ethylene Copolymer Emulsion VAE Polymers VAE Emulsion
VAE Emulsion 102H is a vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) copolymer emulsion, commonly referred to as EVA emulsion. It is a high-performance, water-based, and environmentally friendly binder.
Q: Is VAE adhesive waterproof?
A: VAE-based adhesives offer good water and moisture resistance, but the level depends on the specific formulation. For high-moisture environments such as bathrooms, kitchens, or swimming pools, VAE-based tile adhesives can provide durable bonds when properly formulated . For fully waterproof requirements, additional formulation adjustments or higher VAE dosages (12–15%) may be needed.
Q: Can VAE be used for bonding non-porous materials?
A: Yes. Thanks to the ethylene segments in its copolymer structure, VAE emulsion provides excellent wetting and adhesion to non-porous substrates such as PVC, metal, glass, and various plastic films without requiring primers -1. This makes it suitable for laminating applications in packaging and industrial bonding.
