Description
A proteinaceous, water soluble Adhesive made from fish parts containing Collagen, Keratin, or Elastin. The agglutinating agents are remove by extraction with hot water, then cooled and dried to produce Gelatin or Glue. Varied production techniques can produce poor-quality fish glues. The highest quality is made from the swim bladders of sturgeons. It is clear, bluish white and very flexible. Isinglass is a fine glue made from a specific type of sturgeon. it is generally sold in narrow soft translucent strips. In general, fish glues are lighter in color than Hide glue and form a weaker adhesive bond. It dries to a hard, sandable surface and adheres well to Glass, ceramics, Metal, Wood, Cork, Paper, and Leather (Norland 1977). Fish glue is sold in liquid form and is used in painting, gilding, bookbinding, casemaking, gummed tapes, Blueprint paper, and letterpress printing plates.
