Are water-based adhesives re-emulsifying?

Water-based adhesive can re-emulsify in water or other solvents, depending on the specific grade. Some adhesives, like D4 wood adhesives, must be water resistant, and are, therefore, typically not re-emulsive.

Water resistance or re-emulsifying are often important parameters. It influences machine-cleaning, durability of the product, recycling and bio-degradeable behaviour.
