Regalrez hydrocarbon resins

Description

[Eastman formerly Loos and Dillworth] A registered trademark of Hercules for a series of low molecular weight hydrocarbon resin.

Regalrez™ 1018 hydrocarbon resin is produced by polymerization and hydrogenation of pure monomer hydrocarbon feedstocks. Regalrez 1018 is a highly stable, light colored, low molecular weight, nonpolar liquid resin suggested for use in plastics modification, adhesives, coatings, sealants, and caulks. Tech Data
Regalrez 1085 Hydrocarbon Resin is a highly stable, light-colored, low molecular weight, nonpolar resin produced by polymerization and partial hydrogenation of pure monomer hydrocarbon feedstocks. Used in plastics modification, adhesives, coatings, sealants, and caulks. Tech Data
Regalrez® 1094 is a hydrogenated oligomer of styrene and alpha-methyl styrene. It is the base material in both Gamvar Picture varnish and UVS Finishing varnish. Regalrez 1094 contains no added antioxidants or UV stabilizers Tech Data
Regalrez 3102 Hydrocarbon Resin is a light-colored, low molecular weight, nonpolar resin produced by polymerization and partial hydrogenation of pure monomer hydrocarbon feedstocks. Used in plastics modification, adhesives, coatings, sealants, and caulks. Tech Data
Regalrez™ 6108 hydrocarbon resin is a light colored, low molecular weight resin containing both cycloaliphatic and aromatic resins. Tech data
