For resilient roofing and roads
Our asphalt modification products are focused on two markets: roofing and road paving.
For roofing, our modified bitumen products, EASTOFLEX™ amorphous polyolefins, are used to produce a single-ply roofing membrane. And our straight C9 resins help produce clear binders with good sustainability standards, offering low volatile content of around naphthalene at less than 200 ppm. Our rosin products also offer a bio-based solution for clear binders.
For road applications, our DRESINATE™ TX-60W rosin soap acts as the soap emulsifier in the manufacture of RS and MS-type road-surfacing asphalt anionic emulsions.

| Permalyn™ 6110 Synthetic Resin | Rosin Resin | Permalyn™ 6110 synthetic resin, a very pale, hard, thermoplastic resin, is a pentaerythritol ester of gum rosin. It is produced by a special process that yields a low-odor, light-colored, very stable product. Permalyn 6110 is used as a resin modifier in elastomers, waxes, film-formers, and various adhesive and protective coating applications.
|
| Permalyn™ 6110-M Synthetic Resin | Rosin Resin | Permalyn™ 6110-M is a high softening point, light color thermoplastic resin; it is a pentaerythritol ester of gum rosin, specially developed to be used in the Adhesives Industry. The special manufacturing process of this resin allows getting a product, which is highly resistant to oxidation, color retention and has minimum odor.

| Permalyn™ 8120 Rosin Ester | Rosin Resin | Permalyn™ 8120 is a pentaerythritol ester of gum rosin which has been chemically modified to have a ring and ball softening point near 120°C. Permalyn™ 8120 has lower color, better color stability higher heat stability, and higher softening point than typical pentaerythritol rosin esters. It is potentially useful in hot melt adhesive and ink applications where a high softening point is desirable and especially in packaging hot melt adhesives where color and viscosity stability at application temperatures are critical.
|
| Poly-Pale™ Partially Dimerized Rosin | Rosin Resin | Poly-Pale™ resin is a pale, partially polymerized (dimerized) gum rosin. Compared with pale grades of regular wood, gum, or tall oil rosins, it has a higher softening point, higher viscosity (molten and in solution), much greater resistance to oxidation, and complete freedom from crystallizing when in solid form or in solution. Its many uses include the preparation of varnishes, driers, synthetic resins, ink vehicles, floor tile, rubber compounds, solder fluxes, and various adhesives and protective coatings.

| Staybelite™ Ester 10-E Ester of Hydrogenated Rosin | Rosin Resin | Staybelite™ ester 10-E ester of hydrogenated gum rosin is a pale, thermoplastic resin with the excellent resistance to oxidation and discoloration characteristic of ester resins derived from hydrogenated rosin. It is a glycerol ester of rosin that has been stabilized by hydrogenation and has found wide acceptance as a tackifying resin for many adhesive applications, particularly pressure-sensitive, hot melt and emulsion types. In general, it is useful where there is need for a pale, nonoxidizing, color-stable resin.
|
| Staybelite™ Ester 3-E Ester of Hydrogenated Rosin | Rosin Resin | Staybelite™ ester 3-E ester of hydrogenated gum rosin is a pale, viscous, balsamic liquid with the resistance to oxidation and discoloration characteristic of the Staybelite series of resins. The tacky, highly adhesive resin can be readily emulsified, and serves as plasticizer for a wide range of film formers. Staybelite ester 3-E is broadly compatible with many other components, and it has found wide acceptance in hot melt, pressure sensitive, and laminating adhesives. In general, it finds use where there is a need for a pale, non-oxidizing, color-stable, highly tacky liquid resin.
|
| Staybelite™ Resin-E Partially Hydrogenated Rosin | Rosin Resin | Staybelite™ resin-E partially hydrogenated rosin is a pale, thermoplastic, acidic resin made by partially hydrogenating rosin. Because of this treatment, Staybelite resin-E partially hydrogenated rosin is highly resistant to oxidation and discolouration, and to changes in solubility characteristics when it is exposed to air and sunlight.
