Performance and Functions of Petroleum Resin in Different Industries

Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

     Petroleum resin is named for its origin as a petroleum derivative. It features low acid value, good miscibility, resistance to water, ethanol, and chemicals, chemical stability to acids and alkalis, as well as the characteristics of adjusting viscosity and good thermal stability. Petroleum resin is generally not used alone but serves as a promoter, regulator, modifier, and is used together with other resins. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd. mainly produces and sells C5 petroleum tackifying resin, C9 petroleum tackifying resin, rubber tackifier, and hot melt adhesive tackifying resin.

Hot Melt Adhesive

A. Paints

Paints mainly use high softening point C9 petroleum resin, C5/C9 copolymer resin, DF-A54 resin, and DF-Z91 resin. Adding petroleum resin to paints can enhance the gloss of the paint, improve the adhesion, hardness, acid resistance, and alkali resistance of the paint film. - Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

B. Rubber

Rubber mainly uses low softening point C5 petroleum resin, C5/C9 copolymer resin, DF-A54 resin, and DF-Z91 resin. These resins have good compatibility with natural rubber particles and do not significantly affect the rubber vulcanization process. Adding petroleum resin to rubber can provide tackifying, reinforcing, and softening effects. In particular, the addition of C5/C9 copolymer resin not only increases the adhesion between rubber particles but also enhances the adhesion between rubber particles and cord, making it suitable for high-demand rubber products such as radial tires.

C. Adhesive Industry

Petroleum resin has excellent adhesion. Adding petroleum resin or DF-A54 resin to adhesives and pressure-sensitive tapes can improve the adhesion, acid resistance, alkali resistance, and water resistance of the adhesive, while effectively reducing production costs. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

D. Ink Industry

Petroleum resin for inks mainly includes high softening point C9 petroleum resin, DF-A54 resin, and DF-Z91 resin. Adding petroleum resin to inks can achieve color development, fast drying, brightening effects, and improve printing performance. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

E. Coatings Industry

For road marking and road line coatings, petroleum resin and DF-R54 resin exhibit good adhesion to concrete or asphalt pavement, along with excellent wear resistance and water resistance. They have good affinity with inorganic materials, are easy to apply, have good weather resistance, dry quickly, and offer high durability. They can also improve the physical and chemical properties of the coating layer and enhance UV resistance and weather resistance. Currently, petroleum resin road marking paint is gradually becoming mainstream, with demand increasing year by year. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

F. Others

The resin has a certain degree of unsaturation and can be used in paper sizing agents, plastic modifiers, etc.

      Petroleum resin is non-hazardous. During transportation, it should be protected from sunlight and rain; it must not be transported with spontaneously combustible materials, strong oxidizers, or strong acids. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.

      Petroleum resin should be stored in a ventilated, cool, and dry environment. The storage period is generally one year, and if it passes inspection after one year, it can still be used. Dezhou Pule Chemical Co., Ltd.
