What reports are required for a qualified adhesive?

In the product manufacturing process, adhesives, though seemingly insignificant, are crucial to the overall product's safety, performance, and market access. A truly "qualified" adhesive goes far beyond simply providing a strong bond; it's also about having a complete set of authoritative technical and certification reports to support it. These documents are key to proving its safety, compliance, and reliability.

For manufacturing companies, how can you determine if the adhesive you're using is "fully qualified"? This article uses Conlibon's certification system as an example to outline the essential reports required for qualified adhesives.

01 Essential Basic Documents

Technical Documentation: Providing Clear Guidance for Efficient Application

These are the basic documents that must be provided with qualified adhesives. Conlibon equips all products with complete MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) and TDS (Technical Data Sheets) to ensure customers can use the products safely and efficiently.

• MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet): This is the product's "safety passport," detailing ingredient information, hazard labels, protective measures, and emergency response methods. It is the foundation for ensuring safety during production, storage, and transportation.

• TDS (Technical Data Sheet): This is the product's "performance resume," objectively presenting key parameters such as viscosity, curing conditions, temperature resistance, shear strength, and operating procedures. It provides core information for customer selection and application.

02 Scenario-Specific Applications

Authoritative Certifications Provide Precise Guarantees for Specific Applications

When adhesives are used in demanding fields such as medical and food contact applications, corresponding specialized certification reports are required. Kanglibang has built a targeted certification system to address the diverse safety challenges posed by the stringent requirements of different industries.

• Medical Applications: Kanglibang's medical silicone gel and other products are certified to ISO 13485 Medical Device Quality Management Standard and ISO 10993 Biocompatibility Report. They can directly contact human tissue without causing allergies or cytotoxicity, giving customers in medical catheters, medical dressings, and other scenarios greater peace of mind.

• Environmental Protection and Process Control: Kanglibang holds the IECQ QC080000 Hazardous Substance Process Management System Certificate. From raw material intake to finished product output, the control of hazardous elements such as lead and mercury is implemented throughout the entire process to eliminate potential pollution risks.

03 Market Compliance: Clearing Obstacles for Overseas Expansion

If your product's target market is overseas, the adhesive must pass all tests required by the regulations of the destination country. Kanglibang proactively aligns with the highest international standards, leveraging multiple test reports from authoritative institutions such as SGS to inject global competitiveness into its products.

• Environmental Compliance Reports: RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances), REACH (Registration of Chemicals) and other testing reports are basic access requirements for entering the EU, North America, and other major international markets.

• Health and Safety Certifications: Possessing FDA (Food Contact Grade), California Proposition 65 (Chemical Warning), Low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds), and POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) certifications and testing reports ensures product safety in close contact with the human body in food packaging, baby products, home furnishings, automotive cabins, and other scenarios.

• Material Composition Restrictions: Covering control requirements for specific hazardous substances, including halogen-free (restrictions on chlorine, bromine, etc.) and PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) testing reports, complying with strict restrictions on material composition in electrical and electronic, consumer goods, and environmental regulations.

• Performance Verification Reports: Including aging resistance, high and low temperature resistance, and damp heat resistance extreme environment test reports, using data to verify the long-term stability of the adhesive under various harsh working conditions.

Conclusion

Choosing a "qualified" adhesive requires not only that the adhesive performance meets requirements, but also a clear and reliable reporting system. These technical documents, authoritative certifications, and global compliance reports collectively constitute the adhesive's "proof of value" and its "passport" to the market.

Shenzhen Kanglibang Technology Co., Ltd. has been deeply involved in the adhesive industry for 15 years, providing strong support for customers' quality control and market expansion through transparent product data, solid certification qualifications, and forward-looking compliance strategies.

Choosing Kanglibang is not just choosing adhesive materials, but also choosing a safety commitment of "complete qualifications and full-chain controllability."
