Sylvatac RE 40 Rosin ester Arizona Chemical Natural Resins & Gum >> Rosin Coatings >> Solvent-Free/ High-Solids Soluble in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents SYLVATAC RE 40 RESIN is a low softening point rosin ester with good stability and mild odor. Its polymer compatibility allows it to be used as a tackifier/plasticizer in many adhesive systems, particularly where better wetting or low temperature tack is required. SYLVATAC RE 40 RESIN is recommended for a variety of pressure sensitive and hot melt applications, especially where its low glass transition temperature contributes more aggressive tack and better low temperature properties. SYLVATAC RE 40 RESIN is readily emulsifiable for use in water-based systems. Its low solution viscosity and low volatility suggest uses as a plasticizer or coupling agent in lacquers and high solids coatings. Compatible with: SBR, natural rubber, butyl rubber, chlorinated rubber, neoprene, EVA, EEA, SIS and SBS copolymers, polyethylene, polypropylene, acrylic polymers, phthalate and polyester plasticizers, alkyds and hydrocarbon resins. Low softening point rosin ester. Used as a plasticizer or coupling agent in lacquers and high solids coatings. Offers good stability, mild odor and polymer compatibility. Gives low solution viscosity and low volatility.
