Robust EVA–PU formulations are the result of deliberate system design rather than aggressive correction. They balance multiple factors to achieve long-term stability and predictable performance.
Key elements include compatible pH ranges, controlled ionic strength, appropriate blending order, and the use of compatibility buffers. None of these factors alone can guarantee success.
Robust systems are validated through comprehensive testing, including storage stability, processing tolerance, and application performance. This approach ensures that formulations remain stable despite normal variations in raw materials and operating conditions.
In industrial practice, robustness is often the difference between a formulation that works once and one that works consistently. Designing with robustness in mind reduces technical risk and supports reliable production.
