The Stein Hall glue preparation system provides simplicity at low cost, along with excellent gluing for many different paper types.

In this adhesive, 10% to 20% of the total starch content is gelatinized into a high viscosity paste called primary starch. The remainder of the starch (80% to 90%) stays ungelatinized and is called secondary starch.

Neither the primary nor the secondary starch alone have satisfactory adhesive property for gluing – taken together, however, they form an excellent corrugating adhesive.

Due to the presence of fully gelatinized carrier starch, and the resulting high water retention capacity, Stein Hall glues are particularly recommended for use with very absorbent paper.

Improved performance

Cargill provides a large range of special starches and additives to improve factors in glue performance, such as wet-bond strength and glue penetration.
