Selecting Tackifiers for Adhesives and Sealants
Functions of Tackifiers In adhesive and sealant formulations, tackifiers are used to generate tack and improve specific adhesion (peel strength). They are incorporated into base polymers which mainly lack tackiness and pressure-sensitive properties but provide cohesion.
Dibenzoate Plasticizers in Waterborne Acrylic PSAs
In hot-melt PSAs, oils such as aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and aromatic types are employed as plasticizers. 10,11 Performance is dictated by the compatibility of the components within the formulation (or the lack thereof). In addition, the class of phthalate esters has environmental and health concerns on the regulatory front.
Tackifier
Tackifiers tend to have low molecular weight, and glass transition and softening temperature above room temperature, providing them with suitable viscoelastic properties. Tackifiers frequently represent most of both weight percentage and cost of hot melt adhesives and pressure-sensitive adhesives.
- What is tackifier & plasticizer?
- Due to the molecular property of the resin the tackifier quicky travels to the substrate on the compound providing the much needed building tack. Plasticizer: These resins contribute as plasticizers during the compound of the rubber compound.
- What is the best tackifier resin?
- With more than 35 years of experience, and 30+ grades in AP Series we offer resins to a wide spectrum of Industries. POLYTONE® AP 121 and AP 121 H are our best offering as tackifier resin, these are Octyl Phenol based Novolak Resins which provide superior green tack along with added benefits of low colour and plasticizer properties.
- Which phenolic tackifier is best?
- POLYTONE® AP 120 and AP 120 H are Butyl Phenol based Novolak Phenolic Tackifier. They are designed to provide a economical solution to formulators. Though their performance is lower compared to the Octyl Phenol based (POLYTONE® AP 121/121H) products, their cost effective ness makes them a competitive choice.
