New Resins Products

Resin Systems offer shore hardness from 30A to 75D.

RTP 2700 U, 2700 S and 2800 B are based on SBS, SEBS, and TPV resin systems, respectively. They permit fabrication of rubber-like articles for applications such as grips, handles, tools, gaskets, seals, hoses, bumpers, strain reliefs, electrical boots, and wheels. Systems can be formulated with properties to increase strength, impart flame retardancy, provide conductivity, and alter appearance...

High-Temperature Resins suit critical electronics applications.

Flame-retardant AMODEL FR-4133, FR-6133 and FR-6145 polyphthalamide resins are useful in lead-free SMT soldering operations. They are available in hot-water-moldable base resins, 4000 and 6000, and 2 glass-reinforced levels, 33 and 45%, with heat distortion temperatures up to 300 deg C. Applications include connectors, chip capacitors, cell phone components, circuit breakers, contactors, relays,...

Epoxy Resin bonds to most materials.

TRA-BOND 2111 thixotropic epoxy resin and hardener formulation is developed for industrial adhesive, staking, laminating, repair, and manufacturing applications where long pot-life, good wetting, non-sag, and non-drip properties are required. Two-part system contains no volatile solvents, and cures at room temperature. It bonds to glass and glass fabrics, ceramics, wood, leather, most metals, and...

Acrylic Capstock Resin provides weatherability to HIPS.

Solarkote-® H Acrylic Capstock imparts weatherability to high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) sheets via co-extrusion. It provides protection from ultraviolet light for HIPS substrates without sacrificing impact performance of composite sheet. Co-extruded Solarkote H acrylic cap layers are inherently colorless. Cap layer screens out UV while maintaining high visible light transmission.
