What are the thermo-flux glues?

Adhesives which, applied at molten state of high temperatures, will glue thanks to their cooling and to the pressure exerted between the two elements to be glue. They have properties of reversibility because, if reported at temperatures ranging from 60°C to 100°C, they will soften temporarily losing their adhesive strength.

What are the thermosetting glues?

They are resins which exert their adhesive strength thanks to chemical reactions in part activated by the heat. In the furniture industry the most important thermosetting glues are obtained with the combination of formaldehyde and other basic resins. Having substain a chemical reaction, they are irreversible adhesives, so they resist also at high temperatures.
