When we talk about the uses of adhesives, book binding is the first thing that strikes our mind. Adhesives are mainly used for book binding applications. Book binding involves the assembling of a book with different sheets of paper or other material. Book Binding Adhesive Gum is widely used for the purpose of book binding. Suitable for binding two surfaces together, Book Binding Adhesive Gum forms a paste when it is mixed with water. This gum is formed by formulating and treating the starch with different additives.

The number of substrates, end-uses and coatings are limitless when it comes to binding, knowing the fact that the final products are magazines, catalogs, books and brochures. Bookbinding adhesive gum is available at low costs and has the ability to survive long term storage conditions and repetitive stress. Here is more on the advantages of using book binding adhesive gum:

  • Book binding adhesive gum forms a homogenous paste when it is mixed with water.
  • This gum has no adverse effect on the printed paper.
  • It is known for its even and quick spreading ability.
  • It can be stored for long period.
  • With superior bonding, it does not require de-lamination.
  • It provides a strong bond and that too with quick drying.
  • It is also available in different grades as per solid to water ratio.

With significant demand for adhesives, a number of bookbinding formulations are available in the market today. Bookbinding is done using a number of techniques. Mentioned below is about the two major commercial bookbinding techniques used today:

Traditional Binding is basically used for hardcover or hardbound books. This has rigid covers and the book consists of a number of signatures bound together. If the book is opened in the middle of a signature, the binding threads are visible. The second type, Perfect Binding was originally developed for paperback books. In this technique of binding, only adhesive is used to attach the pages of the book together. It is one of the most widely used bookbinding technique as it uses durable adhesives for binding. Today, it has become immensely popular & is used for all types of books like magazines, paperbacks and journals.
