Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Emulsion manufacturing workers (adhesive manufacturing) are manufacturing positions that produce adhesives using resin emulsions, performing quality control and equipment operation.
Description
Emulsion manufacturing workers (adhesive manufacturing) synthesize and adjust resin emulsions using reaction tanks and stirrers, producing adhesives while managing specified viscosity, solids content, and pH. Tasks encompass weighing and mixing, controlling temperature and stirring speed, quality inspection via sampling, product filling and packaging, and equipment cleaning and maintenance. Manufacturing lines operate on shift or rotating schedules, with safety and hygiene management and efficiency improvements (Kaizen) also being important duties.
Future Outlook
Adhesives enjoy stable demand across a wide range of fields such as automobiles, electrical and electronic equipment, and packaging materials. With strengthening environmental regulations, the shift to water-based emulsion adhesives is progressing, and demand for related technicians is expected to be maintained and expanded.
