Major applications are tapes and labels.
Eastotac resins are hydrogenated C5 aliphatic hydrocarbon tackifying resins. They are characterized by low odor, good solubility, excellent heat stability, and low color. These products also exhibit good tackifying characteristics and broad compatibility with numerous elastomers, polymers, and other resins. Eastotac resins are available in five-color levels with varying softening points, which allow the selection of the resin most suitable for a particular application. Eastotac resins are produced from petroleum feedstock by polymerization followed by hydrogenation.
