Filtrez

Filtrez™ 531 A is an alcohol soluble fumaric acid modified rosin ester with a high softening point and moderately high acid value. Filtrez™ 531 A can be used in solvent and water-based flexographic and in gravure inks. This resin can also be used as a leveling and gloss-promoting agent in floor polishes.

Filtrez™ 530 A is an alcohol soluble fumaric acid modified rosin ester with a high softening point and high acid value. Filtrez 530 A has good solubility and low viscosity in alcohol and aqueous ammonia solutions, which contributes to high gloss in overprint varnishes. This resin is commonly used in solvent and water-based gravure and flexographic inks. Filtrez 530 A also be used as a leveling and gloss-promoting agent in floor polishes.

Filtrez™ 629 A is a medium viscosity phenolic modified rosin ester with low solubility in aliphatic solvents. Filtrez 629 A is designed as a workhorse resin which exhibits good gel reactivity with aluminum chelating agents. This resin is a good backbone resin for sheetfed and heatset applications.

Filtrez™ 3320 A is a maleic modified rosin ester made for ink and nitrocellulose lacquer systems that have low aromatic solvents. Filtrez™ 3320 A is considered suitable for use in gravure and flexographic inks and coatings.

Filtrez™ 521 A is an alcohol soluble fumaric modified rosin ester. Filtrez 521 A is a high acid value, high softening point resin whose broad range of solubility and compatibility makes it an excellent choice in flexographic printing inks.

Filtrez™ 526 A is an alcohol soluble fumaric acid modified rosin ester. Filtrez 526 A has a low amine requirement due to its low acid value, thereby enhancing faster dry. This resin generates a high viscosity in water, thus allowing for lower resin solids in the final ink, and in this way providing improved economics.

high acid value. Filtrez 530 A has good solubility in alcohol and aqueous ammonia solutions, and is commonly used in solvent and water-based gravure and flexographic inks. Filtrez 575 A has characteristics similar to acrylic resins with regards to drying, transfer, gloss, and water resistance of the dry film. The enhanced performance is due to its basic chemical composition, which sets it apart from many other fumaric resins. This resin is particularly useful in non-alcohol, low VOC, water-based inks.

Filtrez™ 591 A is an alcohol soluble, fumaric acid modified, rosin adduct with a high acid value and good solubility in glycol systems. Filtrez 591 A is designed especially for moisture set inks exhibiting fast setting and good press stability. Filtrez 591 A can also be used in pigment striking as an additive. The high acid value, low molecular weight and rosin nature can enhance the pigment’s receptivity to wetting.

Filtrez™ 618 A is a low viscosity phenolic modified rosin ester with high solubility in both aliphatic and vegetable oils. Filtrez 618 A is designed to provide excellent pigment wetting properties. This resin is used primarily in grinding and flushing vehicles.

Filtrez™ 656 A is a high viscosity phenolic modified rosin ester with good solubility in aliphatic solvents. Filtrez 656 A is designed as an elastic resin exhibiting gel structure without the use of additional chelates. This resin can serve as a good foundation for building sheetfed and heatset systems, especially in high shear and high temperature applications.

Filtrez™ 672 A is a high viscosity phenolic modified rosin ester with good solubility in aliphatic solvents. Filtrez 672 A is designed as an elastic resin exhibiting gel structure without the use of additional chelates. This resin can serve as a good foundation for building sheetfed and heatset systems, especially in high shear and high temperature applications.

Filtrez™ 3305 A is a maleic modified rosin ester. Filtrez™ 3305 A is used in Lacquer coatings, Specialty coatings and Thermoplastic applications. It has high viscosity for more viscous applications such as thermoplastic.
