Applicable Base Polymer Properties
Soybean flour is formulated into adhesive systems as either the main polymeric component, incorporated as extenders for other resins. Their primary application is in the manufacture of plywood, softboard laminating, paper overlaying, and other less stringent applications. These adhesives are inexpensive and can be used for making semi-water resistant plywood and for coating some types of paper. They set at room temperatures. One-package soybean glue formulations are dry powders.
