Hot MeltAdhesive which is applied at hot temperatures and sets up while cooling
ImperviousCharacterisitc of a subfloor which porosity is very low. Adhesion on such substrates is usually more difficult and requires more attention and preparation.
Open timeTime between the moment the adhesive was applied and the moment it has no more tack (end of possible laying the covering)
TackAdhesive power to maintain together 2 materials. Tacky surface means sticky surface.
