Description
Acrylic resins are used for many types of soft, but durable adhesives. As aqueous emulsions, acrylics form a viscous, white latex that polymerizes into a crystal clear solid. It is waterproof, tough and durable. Acrylic resins are also used as pressure-sensitive adhesives for plastic, paper, fabric, tapes and labels. When dissolved in a small amount of solvent, acrylic resins produce a clear, strong, fast-setting adhesive used on a range of materials, including ceramics, fabrics, plastics, metal, paper, wood, and glass.
