Products

Florachem d-Limonene is extracted during the production of orange juice. It has the characteristic odor of oranges and is commonly used in the manufacturing of bio-based cleaning compounds as well as a flavor and fragrance additive. One of the main advantages of d-limonene is its superior solvency compared to other solvents. Additionally, it is highly biodegradable and derived from renewable resources, making it an environmentally friendly option.

FloraRez® PR is gum rosin that has undergone partial hydrogenation. It is a pale-colored resin with excellent thermal and oxidative stability characteristics due to the hydrogenation process. Compared to unmodified gum, wood, and tall oil rosins, it offers a higher degree of color and solubility stability for the derivative products produced from it.

FloraRez® DR95 is a polymerized rosin that is produced through the partial dimerization of gum rosin using a catalytic process. This results in a resin with an elevated softening point while still maintaining the acid functionality of rosin. FloraRez® DR95 is pale, thermoplastic, crystallization-resistant, and less prone to oxidation compared to unmodified rosin. Its high acid functionality promotes specific adhesion to various substrates.

FloraRez® 485 is a high-quality glycerol ester derived from partially hydrogenated gum rosin that has undergone purification to ensure exceptional taste and odor characteristics. It is meticulously protected from contaminants. This pale-colored thermoplastic resin possesses a low acid number. In numerous countries, it is considered suitable for incorporation into chewing gum bases as an ingredient. Additionally, it serves as a resin component in a wide range of applications, including adhesives, inks, coatings, and personal care formulations, where oxidative stability is needed.

FloraRez® LRL liquid resin is the methyl ester of partially hydrogenated gum rosin. It is a transparent, clear to pale yellow, tacky, viscous liquid that has been specially processed to minimize product odor. FloraRez® LRL is commonly used to plasticize, add tack to, or modify the properties of a variety of formulations. In fragrance compounds, it is used as a diluent, carrier, and fixative.

FloraRez® HR is gum rosin that has been subjected to a high degree of hydrogenation. This results in a nearly colorless thermoplastic resin that has excellent thermal and oxidative stability characteristics, which are a result of the hydrogenation process. Compared to unmodified gum, wood, and tall oil rosins, FloraRez® HR offers the highest degree of color and solubility stability for its derivative products.

FloraRez® 440 is a tacky, viscous liquid resin that has a light color and is highly resistant to oxidation and discoloration. It is produced through the esterification of partially hydrogenated gum rosin with triethylene glycol. This versatile and heat-stable liquid tackifier can be used in a wide range of formulations.

FloraRez® 785 is a glycerol ester derived from highly hydrogenated gum rosin. This thermoplastic resin exhibits a very pale color and demonstrates remarkable resistance to oxidation and color degradation. It serves as a valuable tackifying resin component in diverse applications such as adhesives, inks, coatings, and personal care formulations, particularly in scenarios where oxidative stability is essential.

FloraRez® DR140 is a polymerized rosin that is produced through the partial dimerization of gum rosin using a catalytic process. This results in a resin with a high dimeric acid content and a very high softening point, while still maintaining the acid functionality of rosin. FloraRez® DR140 is pale, thermoplastic, crystallization-resistant, and less prone to oxidation compared to unmodified rosin. Its high acid functionality promotes specific adhesion to a wide range of substrates.

FloraRez® DR115 polymerized rosin is produced by the partial dimerization of gum rosin. This catalytic polymerization process results in an elevated softening point while maintaining the acid functionality of rosin. This resin is pale, thermoplastic, crystallization-resistant, and less prone to oxidation than unmodified rosin. The high acid functionality promotes specific adhesion to a variety of substrates.

Florachem Ultra High Purity Orange Terpenes is a specialty grade of d-limonene produced through Florachem's fractional distillation process, exclusively from orange (Citrus sinensis). The manufacturing process allows for careful control of performance properties, resulting in a consistent and high-quality product.

FloraRez® 120AA is a hard, thermoplastic resin with a high acid value and a near-colorless appearance. It is produced by reacting gum rosin with acrylic acid under carefully controlled conditions. This product is commonly used as a formulation component in hot melt and pressure-sensitive adhesives, as well as in soldering fluxes, inks, varnishes, coatings, and lacquers.

FloraRez® G85 is the glycerol ester of gum rosin, which is also known as ester gum. It is a pale-colored thermoplastic resin that has a low odor and low acid number. FloraRez® G85 is commonly used as a resin component in various adhesives, inks, coatings, and personal care compositions.
