POSEIDON G5110 Continuous Heating Test
In hot melt adhesive applications, prolonged heat exposure is unavoidable. Adhesives are often held at operating temperature in tanks, hoses, and guns for extended periods. Under these conditions, yellowing is more than a cosmetic issue—it signals polymer degradation and performance instability.
Client Challenge
The client’s production line runs continuously at high temperature. With their previous adhesive, they experienced:
* Visible yellowing after heating
* Concerns about material degradation and process consistency
Their requirement: an adhesive that remains stable in color and performance under continuous heat.
Test Method
To simulate real production conditions, a continuous heating test was conducted:
* Temperature: Operating temperature
* Duration: 1 full working hour (continuous exposure)
* Comparison:
1. POSEIDON G5110
2. Another brand hot melt adhesive
* Evaluation: Visual color change and stability
Results
* POSEIDON G5110: No visible yellowing after 1 hour.
* Other brand: Noticeable discoloration under the same conditions.

Conclusion: G5110 maintains superior thermal stability where standard hot melts begin to degrade.
Why It Matters
For engineers, yellowing resistance is a direct indicator of material integrity. Discoloration often means degradation, which can lead to inconsistent flow, bonding variability, and reduced process reliability.
POSEIDON G5110 is formulated to stay stable under thermal stress, ensuring consistent performance during long heating cycles.
Client Benefits
✔ No visible yellowing
✔ Improved appearance consistency
✔ Greater long-term process stability
✔ Lower risk of performance drift
Summary
This case confirms that POSEIDON G5110 delivers outstanding yellowing resistance under continuous heat, making it a reliable choice for quality-critical, high-temperature production.
