VINNEX® 2504 is a vinyl acetate/ethylene copolymer powder known for its soft and flexible nature, which is a result of its relatively high ethylene content. The resin has a glass transition temperature below the freezing point. Typical applications for VINNEX® 2504 include blending with natural fibers or flours like wood, starch, and cork. It is highly recommended for modifying biopolymers and their compounds.
