Escorez 2184 Aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon ExxonMobil Chemical Tackifier >> Hydrocarbon resin >> Mixed aliphatic / aromatic Rubber - Elastomer (Chloroprene, Butyl …) SEALANT ADHESIVE >> Hot-melt >> Pressure sensitive (HMPSA) This aromatic modified aliphatic resin has enhanced compatibility with even more polar materials such as ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers. The resin is also excellent tackifier for styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and SBR-type rubbers. Escorez 2184 belongs to a family of resins containing both aliphatic and aromatic structures. It is developed as single tackifier, also known as "mono resin" for natural rubber tackification. Its main characteristics are : optimised molecular weight and molecular weight distribution good tack/cohesion balance good ageing properties good adhesion to various surfaces Escorez 2184 shows good adhesion and ageing performance based on the optimisation of its molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. In addition, the chemical composition is modified to enhance the adhesion characteristics to all kinds of cardboard surfaces. Escorez 2184 "mono resin" exceeds the typical PSA characteristics of conventional resin blends in natural rubber based PSA formulations. It is well suited for high performance packaging tapes, to be used on various types of cardboard and in particular on recycled cardboard surfaces. Aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon. Used for natural rubber tackification. Possesses optimised molecular weight and molecular weight distribution, good tack/cohesion balance, good ageing properties and good adhesion to various surfaces.
