Applications
1. Adhesives Industry
Ecopower Hydrogenated Hydrocarbon Resin are in high demand for adhesives, particularly in applications where color and odor-free characteristics are essential. They are tailored for specialized hotmelt adhesives, offering defined compatibility, softening points, and thermostability.
2. Food Packaging
Premium-grade Ecopower Water White Resin products have very low VOC content, complying with FDA and EU regulations. This makes them suitable for formulating safe and clean adhesives for direct and indirect food contact applications.
3. Diapers
These resins are suitable for adhesives used in diaper production. They are odor-free, colorless, and have low viscosity, making them ideal for spray applications. Ecopower Hydrogenated Resins PAMS is particularly recommended for this purpose.
4. Woodworking
Ecopower Water White Resins grades offer high thermostability and good compatibility, ensuring reliable quality and desired processability for woodworking adhesives.
5. Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs)
Fully hydrogenated resins are gaining popularity in PSA formulations. Ecopower Hydrogenated Resins grades offer superior hydrogenation levels and well-defined compatibility with aliphatic blocks, making them ideal for formulating PSAs across a broad temperature range.
6. Other Applications
These resins, known for their UV stability, cleanliness, and broad compatibility, can be used in road marking paints, wax and oil modifications, and even cosmetics.
Sustainability
Rain Carbon is committed to sustainability and offers these hydrogenated resins in molten form, using inert, gas-pressurized iso road tankers. This reduces the carbon footprint and energy consumption while maintaining the stability and quality of the resins during transportation over long distances.
Benefits
The benefits of Ecopower Hydrogenated Resins include excellent compatibility, water-white color, odor-free characteristics, eco-friendliness with very low VOC content, superior high-thermal and UV stability, consistent high quality, suitability for food and skin contact, and availability in molten delivery.
These versatile resins find application across a wide range of industries due to their exceptional properties and compatibility with various materials.
