Viacryl SC 175w/40WAIP Acrylic resin Solutia Acrylics/ Acrylates VIACRYL® Acrylic Copolymer Resins The VIACRYL® resin family comprises three main product classes differing in the mechanism of film formation: Thermoplastic resins, basically not containing reactive groups Thermosetting resins, reacting at elevated temperature with suitable hardeners or crosslinkers like melamine, benzoguanamine, or urea resins Self-crosslinking resins, reticulating at ambient or elevated temperature Both solvent borne and water borne VIACRYL grades are available, the latter being either primary dispersions (i.e. polymerized directly in water), or secondary emulsions (i.e. emulsified in water after polymerisation has been accomplished). VIACRYL® based coatings are used solely or in combination with other resins in the following application fields: Automotive OEM basecoats, clearcoats and pigmented topcoats Car refinishing basecoats Transportation vehicle topcoats Domestic appliances High quality industrial topcoats Primers, sealers and topcoats on wood (furniture, parquet) Masonry, decorative and architectural paints Can Coating (exterior) Road marking Paint formulations based on VIACRYL® resins have desirable performance characteristics. Depending on their momomer composition outstanding properties can be achieved in terms of: Gloss and decorative appearance Hardness Mechanical and chemical resistance Outdoor durability Thermo-stability VIACRYL SC 175w/40WAIP Water dilutable acrylic resin Binder for water dilutable flexographic and special gravure printing inks.
