Description

Butyl Acrylate Resin is a synthetic polymer derived from the monomer butyl acrylate, widely recognized for its excellent film-forming properties and chemical resistance. This versatile polymer is a key component in formulations requiring durable, flexible, and water-resistant coatings. It is essential for manufacturers in the paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, textile finishing, and leather processing industries seeking to enhance product performance and longevity.

Application

• Paints & Coatings: A primary binder in water-based and solvent-based architectural, industrial, and automotive paints, providing excellent gloss, adhesion, and weatherability.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Used in pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), construction sealants, and laminating adhesives for its strong bonding and flexibility.
• Textile & Nonwoven Binders: Imparts durability, water repellency, and soft hand feel to fabric coatings, nonwoven fabrics, and carpet backing.
• Leather Finishing: Serves as a key component in topcoat finishes for leather goods, offering superior flexibility, scratch resistance, and aesthetic appeal.
• Paper Coatings: Enhances the strength, printability, and gloss of coated papers and paperboards.
• Caulks & Putties: Provides the necessary elasticity and adhesion in construction and automotive caulking compounds.

Quality Control

Our Butyl Acrylate Resin is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing for critical parameters including solid content, viscosity, pH, glass transition temperature (Tg), and mechanical properties to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong acids and oxidizing agents. Ideal storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Protect from freezing.
