Frequently Asked Questions
Acrylic polymer–based adhesives and polyurethane flooring adhesives are commonly used for vinyl flooring, offering strong adhesion, flexibility, and durability for residential and commercial applications.
Peel adhesion in vinyl flooring adhesives can be improved using acrylic polymer emulsions that enhance wetting and interfacial bonding, along with proper formulation balance and surface preparation.
Shear stability is influenced by polymer selection, molecular weight, formulation balance, and curing behavior. Acrylic emulsions and polyurethane systems help deliver cohesive strength under load.
Acrylic emulsions are ideal for ease of use, peel adhesion, and cost efficiency, while polyurethane adhesives provide higher bond strength, flexibility, and performance in demanding or moisture-prone environments.
Bonding vinyl to concrete requires moisture-tolerant acrylic or polyurethane adhesives and proper subfloor preparation, including moisture control, cleanliness, and surface smoothness for long-term performance.
