Eastman Kristalex™ F100 Hydrocarbon Resin
Categories:	Other Engineering Material
Material Notes:	Product Description: Kristalex™ F100 Hydrocarbon Resin is a water-clear, color stable, low molecular weight thermoplastic hydrocarbon polymer. Based on purified 8 - 9 carbon aromatic monomers, this resin is indicated for use in plastics modification, hot melt adhesives and coatings, sealants and caulks. Kristalex™ F100 is compatible with a wide variety of oils, waxes, alkyds, plastics, and elastomers, and is soluble in many common organic solvents. In EVA-based hot melt adhesives Kristalex™ F100 is compatible with EVA grades with up to 18% vinyl acetate and is useful in formulating lowcolor adhesives with good low temperature properties. In styrenic block copolymer based adhesives Kristalex™ F100 preferentially associates with the styrenic endblocks, producing higher room-temperature cohesion without affecting tack and adhesion properties. Application/Uses: Alluminum-pigment preparations Assembly Automotive Building and Construction Caulks and Sealants Hot Melt Adhesives Laminating Nonwovens Pressure sensitive adhesives Rubber and Plastic Modification Solventborne Adhesives Tapes and Labels Key Attributes: Excellent thermal stability Intermediate softening point Made from purified aromatic monomers Water-white initial color Information provided by Eastman
