K0203 Tylose MH300
A suitable glue for file preparation (treatment), mounting of objects and other applications in the conservation and preservation fields. From the conservation point-of-view, the cellulose derivative Tylose MH300 (methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose), is a totally harmless and reversible glue. This biopolymer is usually utilized in the field of paper conservation. It is physiologically harmless and water-soluble. Micro-organisms can affect this adhesive with great difficultly.
Glue
•Glue based on cellulose derivate Tylose MH300 (methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose)
•reversible
•Can be removed with water
•aqueous-based
•pH approx. 7.0
•Gel preserved with methyl 4-hydroxy benzoate (0.07 %) and with propyl 4- hydroxy benzoate (0.03 %)
•Germ-free and very resistant against micro-organisms
•Glue transparent in colour
From the conservation point, an accepted and acknowledged glue advised for file preparation, picture mounting and framing and for other applications in the conservation sector. This biopolymer is generally used in the field of paper conservation.
Tylose MH300 glue is stirred in germ-free (sterile) water. After swelling, it is filled into tubes and hermetically sealed (sealed air-tight).
Apart from the file preparation, the glue can also be used for other applications. A major part of conservation picture framing is the mounting of the objects by means of paper slips (Japanese paper) on the backboard. Complex manufacturing of starch paste can be void (eliminated) in the near future. This ready-for-use glue is ideally suitable for all these kinds of applications.
The glue should always be squeezed out by presssing from the tube end. Please use economically. The fine cannula (dispensing nozzle) enables you to apply the glue purposefully. The adhesive force of the glue sets in only after it starts drying. If the cannula is blocked or has dried up glue stuck in it, then you need to soak it in water for a while and clean the nozzle. The validity of the glue is for 24 months provided it is stored cool and in a closed condition. Once the tube has been opened the glue should be used within a year.
