Resinates

 

 
Hydrocarbon Modified Rosin Esters

This resin series involves the reaction of various modified tall oil fractions with hydrocarbons.  We call them hybrid resins, or hydrocarbon-modified rosin esters.  Resinall was one of the first producers to commercially develop this class of resin.  These products are now among the resins of choice for most lithographic ink vehicles.  They have displaced many traditional rosin-based products by offering a superior balance of properties at lower cost.

 
Hydrocarbon Resins: Aliphatic
Aliphatic hydrocarbon resins are a very diverse family of resins.  They have somewhat limited compatibilities which can be harnessed as set improvers and in economically sensitive applications.
 
Hydrocarbon Resins: Aromatic
Aromatic hydrocarbon resins are the most soluble / compatible of all the unmodified hydrocarbon resins.  By virtue of this they can be used in adhesives, rubber and pigment wetting / co-resin applications for oleoresinous printing inks.
Phenolic Modified Rosin Esters
 
Phenolic modified rosin esters are the premiere resins for oleoresinous printing inks.  They can be used for pigment wetting in letdown applications, especially in sheetfed systems where fast set and rub resistance are of concern.
Modified Rosins
 
Modified rosins are a specialized group of resins specific to printing inks, and the rubber industry.  There is also opportunity for use in adhesives and as process aids.
Phenolated Hydrocarbon Resins
 
Phenolated hydrocarbon resins are high softening point, highly compatible hydrocarbon resins which find use in the rubber industry as process additives and curing aids. They also find utility in offset printing inks as pigment wetting and co-resins where set / abrasion resistance are of concern.
Hybrez
 
The HybrezTM resins are the newest addition to the product line and represent a leap forward for Resinall's industry leadership in hybrid resins.  This new and growing group of advanced technology resins is characterized by an outstanding combination of performance and economy for lithographic applications.
Rosin Esters
 
Rosin esters are modified rosin products which find use predominantly in adhesives as tackifiers and / or process aids in other industries.
 
 
Rosin Maleic: Alcohol Insoluble
 
These are conventional, rosin-modified maleic resins.  They find use in overprint varnishes and as modifier co-resins in a wide range of lithographic applications.  Products in this group range from lacquer modifiers for C-type gravure inks to vegetable oil soluble resins for sheetfed overprint varnishes.
 
Rosin Maleic: Alcohol Soluble
 
Rosin maleic- alcohol soluble resins are a diverse group of resins which find utility in printing inks and coatings especially where chemical resistance and FDA ratings are of concern. Their wide range of acid numbers, composition, and softening points afford an excellent range of choices.
