Uniplex 262 Ground is recommended and used to clean reactive hot melt off of roll coating and
laminating equipment. Uniplex 262 Ground is a white solid plasticizer supplied in ground form
for convenience. The material, when exposed to heat, will liquefy and will later resolidify after
the heat is removed. This material can then be disposed of as a solid waste.

ROLL CLEANING
The following procedure should be followed when cleaning roll coating equipment:
Step #1: Remove excess adhesive by reversing the rolls to permit material to squeeze off the rolls
and fall into the clean-up pan.
Step #2 Run the rolls forward, add Uniplex 262 Ground to the rolls, and allow to run for several
minutes.
Step #3 Reverse the rolls to remove excess adhesive/Uniplex 262 Ground mixture.
Step #4 Repeat Steps 2 and 3 a minimum of three times or as necessary.
Step #5 Add one last fine layer of Uniplex 262 Ground to the rolls, which will retard curing of any
residual adhesive.
Step #6 Separate the doctor roll from the applicator roll and let cool down.
All Federal, State and Local regulations, as well as common sense, should be practiced during
handling, cleaning, and disposal operations.
