Features & Benefits
- CASE Ingredients Features
- Product Highlights
- TRAPYLEN®187 EAC has a bit lower chlorine content compared to the similar TRAPYLEN®186 EAC but, as well, good compatibility with other resins and polymers and excellent pigment wetting.
- The cured film has a high gloss and very good chemical and aging resistance.
- The main merit of TRAPYLEN® 187 EAC is the outstanding adhesion on untreated polypropylene, PP/EPDM thermoplastic rubber and with limitations - on polyethylene.
- The resistance against fatty oil and grease is limited and must be compensated by using it with low chlorinated TRAPYLEN®grades.
- It is only recommended as a binder resin for screen printing inks and as an adhesion promoter in plastic paints and solvent based contact adhesives on NR/SBR/polychloroprene basis.
Applications & Uses
