Starch is not water resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dextrin adhesives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dextrin adhesives are based on modified starch, it&#8217;s even a food allowed raw material.  The advantage of Dextrin above starch is it higher solid content. up to 80% <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PVAC adhesives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are no biodegradable certificates of Intercol&#8217;s glues jet, but the base material PVAC has been researched.
