What is Sticky Rice Glue

Feb 19, 2020

Sticky Rice Glue also known as glutinous rice glue (south glutinous rice, northern glutinous rice), is an environmentally-friendly adhesive made from natural glutinous rice or glutinous rice through 12 processes including purification, milling and drying of glutinous rice. Wide application range and high viscosity.


Wet glue can be divided into glutinous rice gum and vegetable starch gum. Wet glue, also known as Japanese wet glue, is a high-performance adhesive for wallpaper. It first emerged in Japan and spread to other regions, so it is also known as "Japanese glue" in the industry


Japanese wet glue is a kind of high-performance adhesive for wallpaper. It was first introduced in Japan and introduced to other regions, so it is also called "Japanese glue" in the industry. Wet glue is distinguished by its production raw materials, which can be divided into two types: glutinous rice glue and vegetable starch glue.


Glutinous rice glue combines the technology of Japan's cutting-edge chemical research institute, and the results obtained by the domestic high-tech research institute to improve and reform the formula are based on pure natural edible glutinous rice. It is also a convenient and pure natural glutinous rice adhesive. Just add water and stir evenly, then no additional tackifier is needed. Superior performance when attaching heavy wallpaper.


Starch glue is the result of the technology of Japan ’s cutting-edge chemical research institute. The main raw material is modified starch (chemically modified starch, which is naturally less environmentally friendly than pure natural glutinous rice gum). The products are mainly this kind of products. Because the raw materials for their production do not have the ingredients of glutinous rice, they are also called "pseudo glutinous rice gum" in the industry. Most of these "pseudo glutinous rice gums" are translucent colloids. "Thickener", which makes it difficult to mix and match during construction. Generally, it needs to be mixed with water 2-3 times.


In fact, the earliest use of glutinous rice as a building material was China. The white brick wall between the Great Wall of China is glutinous rice. After N years of baptism, it still stands. The construction of the Bund is also using glutinous rice to replace cement, which is a kind of mortar performance in ancient China. Super root cause. Researchers have also found that this mortar is still the best material available for restoring ancient buildings. Mortar is a paste used to fill the gaps between bricks, stones and other building materials. Chinese scientist Zhang Bingjian and colleagues have discovered that about 1500 years ago, ancient Chinese construction workers invented super-strong "glutinous rice mortar" by mixing glutinous rice soup with standard mortar. The standard mortar composition is slaked lime, which is limestone that has been calcined or heated to a high temperature and then placed in water.


The glutinous rice mortar is perhaps the world's first composite mortar made from organic and inorganic raw materials. Glutinous rice mortar is stronger and more water resistant than pure lime mortar. Zhang Bingjian also believes that it is one of the greatest technological innovations in history. Construction workers used glutinous rice mortar to build tombs, pagodas, and city walls, some of which exist to this day. Some ancient buildings are very sturdy, even modern bulldozers are difficult to overturn, and can withstand strong earthquakes
