What is a non-substrate?
Asked by Wiki User
a substrate that is not porous. IE has no pores. But more importantly it is impervious to water or air. In a material this would mean that an adhesive would need to either melt/weld or create a bond between it and the substrate.

A non-porous substrate would not allow this and so the bond, if an, would be weak.
