Brent Horne, Sales Director, CASE, Latex Binders North America, was recently featured in an interview published by SpecialChem, where he shared valuable insights on the evolving performance requirements shaping modern construction adhesive formulations.

In the interview, Brent discusses how the increasing diversity of construction materials and installation environments is placing greater emphasis on binder selection. This is crucial for achieving reliable adhesion and long-term durability. He highlights how acrylic latex binder technologies provide formulators with the flexibility to balance critical performance attributes such as strength, flexibility, and application behavior across a wide range of substrates and service conditions. 

The discussion also explored broader market trends influencing adhesive development, including the growth of engineered building materials and the necessity for predictable installation performance under varying job-site conditions. These evolving demands continue to drive innovation in polymer design and binder technology, supporting next-generation construction applications.
