PLAKAL 880 is an elastic spine glue with high viscosity for bookbinding. This white jelly adhesive forms an elastic film after drying with good adhesion on dry dispersion adhesive.
The elastic film formation after drying means spines can flex without cracking, which is important for books that need to open repeatedly over their lifetime.
The good adhesion on dry dispersion adhesive means this can be used in multi-layer spine applications where flexibility is needed over a base coat.
The high viscosity means the adhesive stays where it’s applied without running or sagging, which is important for vertical spine applications.
PLAKAL 880 has been formulated as an elastic spine glue for bookbinding operations where flexibility matters. The formulation has been designed to form an elastic film after drying, which means spines can flex without the adhesive cracking or failing. The good adhesion on dry dispersion adhesive means this can be used as a flexible top coat over standard spine adhesives. Supplied in 2.5 kilo pillows for convenient handling.

Use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling. Wear gloves and eye protection. Maintain adequate ventilation in the work area. Avoid prolonged skin contact. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with water and seek medical attention. Keep packaging sealed when not in use. Consult the safety data sheet for complete handling information.
The high viscosity means this adhesive is particularly suited to applications where running or sagging would be problematic. The elastic properties develop as the adhesive dries. Can be used alone or as a flexible top coat over standard spine adhesives. Apply adequate film thickness for optimal elastic performance. Clean equipment with water whilst adhesive is wet. Allow adequate drying time for the elastic film to form properly.
