Its tackiness and extremely pale color, combined with its solubility in common organic solvents and compatibility with resins, film-formers, and oils, have led to its use as a resinous plasticizer and/or tackifier in plastics, lacquers, inks and adhesives. Chemically, ABITOL -E Resin is a high molecular weight, primary, monohydric alcohol derived from rosin acids that have been hydrogenated to reduce unsaturation. ABITOL -E Resin undergoes the general types of chemical reaction common to most primary alcohols. High refractive index; excellent color; low odor; good tack and adhesion; wide range of compatibility and solvency; resistance to oxidation; reactive hydroxyl group. Compatible at all ratios, or in limited but practically useful proportions, with nitrocellulose, ethylcellulose, melamine- and urea-formaldehyde resins, polyethylene, shellac and carnauba wax. Compatible in limited amounts with casein, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl acetate chloride, polyvinyl butyral, natural rubber and synthetic rubber, EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate), SIS, SBS and SEBS (styrene blcok copolymers), polyolefins. Incompatible with cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, polystyrene, and zein. Soluble in alcohols, esters, ketones, chlorinated solvents, and aliphatic, aromatic, or terpene hydrocarbons.
