Waterborne pressure-sensitive adhesives for the toughest packaging applications
- Low noise
- Excellent runnability for improved productivity
- Excellent adhesion onto cardboard for secure box closing
- APEO-free, formaldehyde-free and ammonia-free.
Environmentally-friendly, waterborne, pressure sensitive adhesives for packaging tape. These products deliver reliable, secure performance in both general and low-noise tape applications. They exhibit low foaming, good wetting on low surface energy carriers such as BOPP, and excellent runnability at high coating speeds.
Based on sustainable formulations which are free from APEO, formaldehyde and ammonia, they will help your products meet ever-more stringent regulatory demands. And our high-solids, water-based PSAs provide improved drying and film-forming properties, contributing to lower transportation costs, and helping to reduce the carbon footprint of your products.

| Endex™ 155 Hydrocarbon Resin | Pure Monomer Resin | A water-white thermoplastic resin made from purified aromatic hydrocarbon monomers. Used to modify the melt flow and increase the temperature resistance of styrenic plastic and rubber. Reinforces the styrene endblocks of styrenic block copolymers. In adhesives Endex™ 155 hydrocarbon resin will associate with the styrenic endblocks, producing higher cohesion at temperatures up to 70°C without affecting tack and adhesion properties.

| Endex™ 160 Hydrocarbon Resin | Pure Monomer Resin | A water-white thermoplastic resin made from purified aromatic hydrocarbon monomers. Used to modify the melt flow and increase the temperature resistance of styrenic plastic and rubber. Reinforces the styrene endblocks of styrenic block copolymers. In adhesives Endex™ 160 hydrocarbon resin will associate with the styrenic endblocks, producing higher cohesion at temperatures up to 70°C without affecting tack and adhesion properties. Endex™ 160 hydrocarbon resin has the highest softening point among all hydrocarbon resins available from Synthomer.

| Plastolyn™ 240 Hydrocarbon Resin | Pure Monomer Resin | Plastolyn™ 240 hydrocarbon resin is a versatile, aromatic, water-white, high softening point resin for use in polymer modification, adhesives, overprint lacquers, coatings and a variety of other applications. Recommended as a flow modifier in such polymers as polyvinylchloride (PVC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and stryenic block copolymers. Its water-white color and good economy, combined with superior heat and ultraviolet light (UV) stability compared with conventional C9 hydrocarbon resins, provide formulators a new level of quality without sacrificing competitiveness.
|
| Plastolyn™ 290 Hydrocarbon Resin | Pure Monomer Resin | Plastolyn™ 290 hydrocarbon resin is a versatile, aromatic, water-white, very high softening point resin for use in polymer modification, adhesives, overprint lacquers, coatings and a variety of other applications. Recommended as a flow modifier in such polymers as polyvinylchloride (PVC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and styrenic block copolymers. Its water white color and good economy, combined with superior heat and ultraviolet light (UV) stability compared with conventional C9 hydrocarbon resins, provide formulators a new level of quality without sacrificing competitiveness.
|
| Plastolyn™ 290LV Hydrocarbon Resin | Pure Monomer Resin | Plastolyn™ 290LV hydrocarbon resin is aromatic, water-white, very low organic volatile content and very high softening point for use in polymer modification, adhesives, overprint lacquers, coatings and a variety of other applications. Recommended as a flow modifier in such polymers as polyvinylchloride (PVC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and styrenic block copolymers. Its water white color and low organic volatiles combined with superior heat and ultraviolet light (UV) stability compared with conventional C9 hydrocarbon resins, provide formulators a new level of quality without sacrificing competitiveness.

| PLEXTOL™ D 268 | PA | PLEXTOL D 268 an aqueous acrylic emulsion for PSA applications. |
| Tacolyn™ 3400 Resin Dispersion | Tackifier Dispersion | Tacolyn™ 3400 resin ester dispersion is an aqueous, 55% solids, solvent-free, anionic rosin ester dispersion prepared from a highly hydrogenated, high softening point resin. It is recommended for use in food packaging applications such as closures, lidding, and cold seal adhesives, as well as pressure sensitive adhesives that contact food. Tacolyn™ 3400 is also used in adhesives applications requiring higher temperature strength such as in high temperature masking tapes, packaging tapes, and contact adhesives.
|
| Tacolyn™ 5085 Resin Dispersion | Tackifier Dispersion | Tacolyn™ 5085 resin dispersion is an aqueous, 55% solids, solvent-free anionic hydrocarbon dispersion prepared from a low molecular weight, aliphatic C5 hydrocarbon resin. It is recommended as a tackifier for isoprene rubber and natural rubber latex polymers used in tape applications. Tacolyn™ 5085 is a good reinforcing agent that maintains excellent peel control when used in pressure sensitive tapes.
