Plioway EC1 Styrene acrylate copolymer Eliokem Acrylic Resins >> Styrene/ acrylic copolymer >> Solid resin Coatings >> Waterborne Architectural / Decorative >> Interior wall coatings Architectural / Decorative >> Exterior wall coatings Plioway® ULTRA EC1 is Newtonian thermoplastic resin. Substituted styrene acrylate copolymer. PLIOWAY EC1 resin is a film forming newtonian resin soluble in low odour "aromatic free" solvents. The sophisticated selection of monomers in PLIOWAY EC1 gives it the exceptional solubility needed for special odourless interior paints as well as the durability required for exterior masonry, concrete coatings and odourless multicolour paints. Paint films based on PLIOWAY EC1 form by simple solvent evaporation with low internal tension, making them ideal for the rapid renovation of old "problematic" interior or exterior water based coatings. When used with non aggressive "aromatic free" solvents, PLIOWAY EC1 formulations are ideal for direct application on solvent sensitive plastics like polystyrene tiles or polystyrene based thermal insulation. PLIOWAY EC1 paint films have excellent adhesion on a wide variety of substrates, stain covering power for interior paints (e.g. nicotine, smoke stains and dried watermarks), chemical resistance (acids, alkalis), for low odor interior paints, primers and waterproofing sealers, barrier properties against water and CO2 gas diffusion, for "aromatic free" exterior concrete coatings, color retention i.e. non-yellowing of interior paints and balanced weathering properties for exterior paints. Newtonian thermoplastic styrene acrylate copolymer. Used in interior paints, exterior masonry, concrete coatings and odourless multicolour paints, for renovation of old "problematic" interior or exterior water based coatings. Offers very good stain covering power. Provides very good chemical resistance. Possesses color retention i.e. non-yellowing of interior paints and balanced weathering properties.
