DESMOCOLL 540/5
Product Information
Linear Hydroxyl Polyurethane
Description
Desmocoll 540/5 is a predominantly linear hydroxyl

polyurethane. Form supplied is in granules.
Application
Desmocoll 540/5 is a flexible polyurethane with

an extremely high crystallization rate and very low
thermoplasticity. It is characterized by its high green
strength and the heat resistance of the bonds. It has
outstanding adhesion on PVC substrates and high
resistance to the most commonly used PVC plasticizers.
Desmocoll 540/5 is suitable for the formulation of
adhesives for use on various materials, such as leather, rubber, textiles, wood, many plastics (including
polyurethane elastomers), plastic films and aluminum
foils. As with any product, use of Desmocoll 540/5
in a given application must be tested (including but
not limited to field testing) in advance by the user to
determine suitability.
