Light-Colored Resins
Plastolyn 240 and 290 Resins
These are water-white, highly color-stable aromatic resins made from pure monomer feed streams. There are two softening point grades: 120°C (240°F) and 140°C (290°F). They are recommended for use as flow modifiers in such polymers as polyvinylchloride (PVC), acrylonitrile-butadiene- styrene (ABS), and block copolymers. Other applications include paints, caulking compounds, laminating and hot melt adhesives, and coatings.
General Product Characteristics
Plastolyn 240 and 290 are neutral resins with < 1 acid number and <2 saponification number. The relative degree of unsaturation can vary, with bromine numbers ranging from 2 to 8. Specific gravity as measured at 25°C (77°F) will be 1.04 to 1.10. Flash points are >232°C (>450°F) as measured by COC.
