Rovene 5044 was designed to give excellent performance and compatibility with a wide variety of tackifiers.

Rovene 4305 is a styrene-butadiene emulsion polymer recommended for non-woven and textile applications that require a soft yet strong backcoating. It gives good adhesion to polyester as well as cellulosic substrates. Rovene 4305 offers outstanding water and solvent resistance especially when formulated with external crosslinkers.

Rovene 4423 is a very soft carboxylated styrene-butadiene emulsion designed for formulation of permanent label adhesives and flooring adhesives. This polymer emulsion allows for the formulation of permanent label adhesives which are high in peel and tack, yet require a minimum amount of tackifier. However, it provides good tack on its own, thus minimizing the amount of tackifer required. Rovene 4423 was designed to give excellent performance and compatibility with a wide variety of dispersed tackifiers. Rovene 4423 can also be blended with natural latex for high shear tape adhesives and for use in special contact adhesive applications.

Rovene 6005 is a very soft acrylic, high molecular weight latex emulsion specifically designed for formulation of pressure sensitive permanent label adhesives. Its high molecular weight allows the formulation of permanent label adhesives which are high in peel and tack, yet require a minimum amount of tackifier. Rovene 6005 was designed to give excellent performance and compatibility with a wide variety of dispersed tackifiers. Rovene 6005’s high molecular weight also provides improved wet crock of inks printed on nonwoven and textile substrates in the Printing and Packaging market.

Rovene 97982 is a very soft acrylic suggested as a base resin in flexible packaging laminating adhesives. Rovene 97982 provides excellent clarity and UV stability, high tack and peel, and medium shear. Rovene 97982 also has good adhesion to low surface energy substrates.

Rovene 6090 is a functionally modified, water-based vinyl acetate copolymer latex. As a water-based release coating, Rovene 6090 is recommended as a blending component for Rovene 6091 to modify the degree of adhesive release. On its own, this fast drying, firm copolymer has excellent mechanical stability during application and provides a final coating with very tight release values. When combined with Rovene 6091, release values can be easily tailored to specific needs. Features: Firm hand High riding Fast drying High TMLI release values (tight release) Excellent mechanical stability

Rovene 6091 is a functionally modified vinyl acetate copolymer latex recommended for use as a water-based release coating. As a water based release coating, Rovene 6091 is recommended for use with adhesives exhibiting a high degree of tack. Rovene 6091 is recommended as a blending component for Rovene 6090 to modify the degree of adhesive release. This fast drying, firm copolymer has excellent mechanical stability during application and provides a final coating with easy release. Features: Firm hand High riding Fast drying Low TMLI release values (easy release) Excellent mechanical stability

Rovene 4848 is a very soft non-carboxylated styrene-butadiene emulsion specifically designed for the use in a two part spray adhesive for open or closed cell foams and other contact and cold seal applications. Rovene 4848 has fast break characteristics that may allow it to be used in specially formulated one part spray adhesives. Rovene 4848 has found applications in two part foam-to-foam, one and two part fast breaking spray up adhesives, and special contact or cold seal applications in combination with polychloroprene and natural latex. When working with Rovene 4848 it is important to remember that it may be tackified, thickened and blended with other non-carboxylated and carboxylated emulsions. This flexibility allows for the formulating of a wide variety of adhesives with custom performance properties.
