MOR-FREETM L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 

Fast Cure Solventless Laminating Adhesive 

Description 

Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 is a solvent-free, 100% solids, two component polyurethane

adhesive system that can be applied at room temperature. As the reactivity of Mor-Free L 75-164/BHTModified C-411 is high, the laminates can generally be further processed in as little as 6 hours. The 

chemical curing is generally completed within 3 days at room temperature of 72°F. As always, converters

should verify appropriate cure times for their individual application. 

Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 can be used for laminating all polyolefin films, including LDPE to

LDPE, OPP to OPP, and OPP to LDPE, as well as nylon, aluminum, polyester, and other packaging

substrates. The films may be unprinted or reverse printed with the appropriate laminating grade inks. 

Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 offers rapid bond development to decrease time needed for

processing while offering good metal adhesion. Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 can be used for a

wide range of applications.

Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 may react or interact with other components of laminations.

Retained volatiles (solvents or water), slip additives, antiblock agents, and inks are some of the components

that may cause property changes of the laminated structure. If Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 is

used on high slip films (COF < 0.2) or with high slip LDPE/LDPE laminations, then the user must verify that 

potential film property changes due to the lamination process and materials are acceptable for the end use

performance requirements.

Mor-Free L 75-164 is sensitive to moisture and should be stored under and transferred with dry nitrogen. 

Recommended Coating Weight Range: 0.8 - 1.2 lb/ream

PACKAGING AND

BUILDING MATERIALS 
This two component solventless adhesive system is virtually independent of the need for moisture for 

curing. 

The original viscosity of the mixture can be reduced by preheating the application rollers to a typical 

temperature of 120° - 140°F (50° - 60°C). Higher temperatures may be required depending on the line 

speed, machine configuration, and choice of substrates. 

A relatively slow initial increase in viscosity is due to the exothermic reaction of the adhesive immediately 

after the mixing process and the mechanical influences in the application system. 

For short trial runs we recommend preparation of no more adhesive than can be used within 

5-10 minutes. A high speed stirrer suitable for a homogeneous mixing should be used. However, the use 

of a meter/mix/dispense device which continuously mixes the adhesive at the chosen ratio, controls the 

feeding of the application unit, and stops production automatically in case of machine failures, is 

indispensable for extended trials and normal production. 

When processing Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411, the safety rules for working with isocyanates

must be observed. The adhesive contains monomeric MDI. See Material Safety Data Sheet for specific 

details. 

Cleaning 

The application unit should be cleaned before the adhesive becomes insoluble by progressive curing, if 

the machine stops take more than 30 minutes. If the applicable unit and mixing device are combustion 

proof, they may be cleaned with esters or ketones such as ethyl acetate and MEK. 

Several commercially available solvents are safe and effective for flushing and cleaning Mor-Free adhesive

residues from solventless laminators and meter/mix/dispensing equipment that do not have combustion

proof ratings. We recommend contacting either Dynaloy, Inc. (800-669-5709; www.dynaloy.com) or 

Danko Industries (630-882-6070) for cleaning solvent recommendations. Always consult the solvent 

supplier’s MSDS for safety information before use. 

Safety, Handling and Storage 

• Mor-Free L 75-164/BHT-Modified C-411 can be stored for 360 days in airtight, closed, original

containers in dry rooms at temperatures of 70 ± 20°F. Opened containers should be used as quickly 

as possible. 

• Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. Keep container tightly 

closed. 

• Follow good manufacturing and handling practices. 

• Wash thoroughly after handling. Wash contaminated goggles, face shield, and gloves. 

Professionally launder contaminated clothing before re-use. 

• ATTENTION! Container can be hazardous when empty. Follow label warnings even after container 

is empty. Do not reuse empty container without professional cleaning. 

• Refer to Material Safety Data Sheet for more information.
