UCAR Latex 9188 UCAR™ Latex 9188 represents a new waterborne technology. It is an inherently pressure sensitive copolymer designed specifically for use as a carpet adhesive. UCAR Latex 9188 features the following performance characteristics:
- Good balance of surface tack, peel adhesion, and cohesive strength;
- Good adhesion over concrete and other flooring substrate;
- Excellent plasticizer migration resistance;
- Repositionable after initial dwell time;
- Maintains adhesion under damp conditions;
- Maintains tack over "green" cement-based substrates.
This combination of performance properties makes UCAR Latex 9188 well suited for both the Do-It-Yourself and professional carpet adhesive markets. In particular, this product will perform well as the base polymer for carpet-square adhesives.
