Binder
A binder is a broad category of substances—organic or inorganic—used to hold different materials together in a cohesive mass. Common binders include natural polymers (starch, cellulose derivatives, proteins), synthetic resins (PVA, acrylics, phenolics), and inorganic binders (clays, cement, lime). They are essential in industries such as pharmaceuticals, construction, coatings, ceramics, adhesives, and printing, where they provide structural integrity, adhesion, and controlled release properties.
Epikote 828 (Epoxy Resin)Â
Epikote 828 (Epoxy Resin)Â is a liquid bisphenol-A-based epoxy resin with a low molecular weight. It is one of the most widely used general-purpose epoxy resins in industrial applications due to its excellent mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties. Epikote 828 cures with various hardeners, especially amines, to form thermoset polymers with outstanding adhesion, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. The resin is typically a clear to pale yellow viscous liquid and is soluble in most organic solvents. It is primarily used in coatings, adhesives, composites, electrical encapsulation, flooring systems, and structural materials.
Hydrocarbon Resins
Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins are synthetic petroleum-derived resins produced through the polymerization of C5 (pentene) and C9 (nonene) fraction monomers. These resins appear as pale yellow to amber solid materials, usually in pellet or flake form, characterized by tackifying and adhesive properties. C5 resins are derived from aliphatic hydrocarbons, while C9 resins originate from aromatic hydrocarbons. Often blended, these resins provide a balance of hardness, tackiness, and compatibility with various polymers. Widely used as tackifiers, binders, and modifiers, C5 & C9 hydrocarbon resins enhance performance in adhesives, coatings, rubber compounding, and more.
