Novares LA 300 Aromatic hydrocarbon Rütgers Chemicals Tackifier >> Hydrocarbon resin >> Aromatic Epoxy (EP) Polysulfides PU - Prepolymers ADHESIVE SEALANT Novares LA is an aromatic hydrocarbon resin used in adhesives and sealants. The NOVARES L types are used as tackifiers in adhesives and as modifiers and water repellent agents in combination with epoxy, polyurethane and polysulfide systems. Building Adhesives have to bond together various materials. Good adhesion and strength are required. Joint sealants have to meet stability, adhesion, good elasticity even under temperature changes and good resistance weathering as well as compatibility with the different materials. NOVARES resins in combination with reactive systems, e.g. epoxy, acrylates, polyurethanes and polysulfides give the following properties: water repellency during and after curing of the systems increase of resistance to water and moisture control of viscosity flexibility in the end formulations improved wetting of fillers and pigments increase of resistance to acids and alkali Liquid aromatic hydrocarbon resin. Used as a tackifier in adhesives and as modifier and water repellent agent in combination with epoxy, polyurethane and polysulfide systems. Provides good adhesion, flexibility and strength. Increases resistance to water, moisture, acids and alkali. Improves wetting of fillers and pigments.
