Reichhold Introduces POLYLITE® ABR Resin for Acrylic Bonding Applications

23-Sep-2003

Reichhold has introduced a new, highly fillable acrylic bonding resin which exhibits excellent adhesion to acrylic in fabricated parts.

POLYLITE® ABR 33305 is a low-HAP (typically 40%) acrylic bonding resin which provides improved handling with fillers up to 60 percent, providing a lower overall system cost. It is formulated to accept high filler loadings of calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate or other conventional fillers.

POLYLITE ABR 33305 contains 30 percent less styrene than conventional resins. This lower styrene content reduces worker exposure levels and provides a noticeable improvement in work area air quality. The reduced emissions of POLYLITE ABR 33305 may allow manufacturers to increase production capacity in some areas due to lower emissions.

This resin exhibits enhanced thixotropic properties to provide improved sag resistance on vertical surfaces and is recommended for open mold, hand lay-up, spray-up and robotic processes.
