Product description

A water-white thermoplastic resin made from purified aromatic hydrocarbon monomers. Used to modify the melt flow and increase the temperature resistance of styrenic plastic and rubber. Reinforces the styrene end blocks of styrenic block copolymers. In adhesives Endex™ 160 hydrocarbon resin will associate with the styrenic endblocks, producing higher cohesion at temperatures up to 70°C without affecting tack and adhesion properties. Endex™ 160 hydrocarbon resin has the highest softening point among all hydrocarbon resins available from Eastman Chemical Company.
