C5 HYDROCARBON RESIN

C5 Hydrocarbon Resin is a low-molecular-weight thermoplastic polymer derived from petroleum C5 (pentene) streams. It exhibits excellent compatibility with various polymers, oils, and rubbers, providing enhanced tack, adhesion, and cohesion in formulations. Our C5 resin is characterized by its light color, low odor, good thermal stability, and UV resistance, making it an ideal modifier for adhesives, coatings, rubber compounding, and printing inks.
