ADHESIVES FOR LIQUID FILTER ASSEMBLY
Today’s engineers are faced with the need to develop filters that satisfy increasing
operating and processing requirements. Liquid filters are used in everything from
automobiles to refineries to aircraft, and must withstand exposure to the most intense
operating conditions. Despite continuous exposure to hot oils or solvents, these filters
must remove particulates to keep the equipment running effectively.
Adhesives are required to not only be compatible with your substrates
and your manufacturing process, but to also meet the extreme
demands of end-use working environments.
Adhesives That Satisfy the Extremes
If your application requires an adhesive to withstand constant exposure to aggressive solvents like glycols,
fuels or oils, we can supply it.
Chemical and Temperature Resistance
Henkel’s polyamide hot melt adhesives and our one- and two-part epoxies are compatible with a wide range
of operating conditions. Our adhesives for liquid filter assembly are formulated to have superior chemical and
heat resistance properties by providing a durable, shock-resistant seal between the end cap and the media.
We recognize the importance of efficient processing, so our adhesive products provide controlled exotherms
that limit the amount of distortion and bond shrinkage after cure.
With Henkel, you get just what you need.

RELIABLE ADHESIVES FOR INDUSTRIAL AIR FILTERS
Industrial filters must consistently deliver clean air under severe operating conditions.
Whether the filters are used in automotive engines, heavy-duty equipment, dust
collectors or even vacuum cleaners, buyers demand high performance and reliability.
To meet these demands, you not only need adhesives that are
compatible with your media and your production equipment,
but also meet the ultimate end-use filter requirements.
With Henkel, you get just what you need.
Adhesives That Match Your Product Profile
If your application requires adhesives to bond special media or low surface energy substrates, to resist extreme
temperature conditions or to remain flexible for radial designs, we can supply it.
Heavy-Duty Applications
For example, cartridge filters used in dust collection or gas turbine applications are often exposed to vibration and high
air velocities. Whether serving as the end cap or the potting compound, Henkel’s polyurethanes are specifically designed
to meet the demands of industrial filtration.
High Temperature Applications
Pleated filters used in industrial vacuums or engines are often exposed to higher temperatures for extended periods.
Our hot melt adhesives are formulated to not only improve equipment processing and produce superior quality filters,
but also to withstand the requirements of the end-use application. But a standard product is not always the best solution.
When you need a custom adhesive, Henkel can formulate it to match your specific process, design and application.

HIGH PERFORMANCE ADHESIVES FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY FILTERS
The stakes are high for laboratory, clean room and industrial filters. Dust contaminants
can compromise an entire electronic assembly or skew the results of a laboratory study.
Therefore, users are demanding better filtration to protect their operations.
Air filters containing high ASHRAE ® efficiency or HEPA grade
media come in all shapes and sizes. Henkel has a full range
of adhesive products to meet these challenges.
Adhesives That Meet Your Standards
If your application requires an adhesive to bond to metal frames, to keep mini-pleats evenly spaced or to have low
volatiles to minimize outgassing, we can supply it.
Improved Hot Melt Adhesives for Pleating
Henkel’s hot melt adhesives are formulated to produce superior quality filter pleat packs with both synthetic and
micro fiberglass media and can function in a wide range of pleating equipment.
Superior Polyurethanes for Frame Bonding
High efficiency air filters are not complete without a potting compound to seal the pleats. Our two-part liquid
polyurethane adhesives are formulated to achieve the desired cure rates, produce the specified hardness and perform
under turbulent environments.

ADHESIVES FOR WATER FILTER
ASSEMBLY
Today, municipalities, businesses and households use
membrane and carbon block filtration elements to
separate contaminants from water and other liquids. As
the use of these filters continues to expand into new
end-use applications, the performance requirements
can change and the elements can be exposed to harsher
operating conditions. These changes often require the
development of new filters and improved adhesives.
Polyurethanes and Epoxies
The cost and performance of filtration elements are critical for expansion into new markets. As such, new and innovative
adhesives are required to keep pace with the changing substrates, process automation upgrades and more demanding
filtration requirements. Henkel has the technical expertise to formulate custom adhesives to meet your changing needs.
Whether you are assembling carbon block, spiral wound, hollow fiber, tubular or cassette membranes, Henkel can satisfy
your application needs. Our polyurethane adhesives are formulated to resist a wide range of pH, chemicals, temperatures
and pressures. In some applications you may need the adhesive to do a little extra, and our epoxies are designed to
provide this added performance.
It’s a real challenge, but Henkel can help.

Building the Next Best Thing
We realize that selecting the right adhesive is more than just a viscosity or open time value.
It’s a combination of factors like adhesion to filter media, bond strength to metal end caps,
or high temperature resistance. Moreover, it’s about working with suppliers who treat their
customers like partners. At Henkel, we work with customers to help them take the next step.
For application assistance or additional information, call 1.866.4HENKEL (443.6535).
The Henkel filter team will help find a solution that’s right for you.
