Sylvalite RE - Description
Rosin esters impart excellent specific adhesion to a wide range of substrates due to their polarity and polymer compatibility. Their low molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution, combined with their cycloaliphatic – aromatic structure, make rosin esters the most broadly compatible of all adhesive tackifiers. They are used in a wide range of polymers including high and low vinyl acetate EVA, acrylics, polyurethanes, SIS and SBS. Their biorenewable content is 85%.

Such applications include value-added hot melt packaging and book binding adhesives, hot melt SBC pressure sensitive adhesives and solvent-based pressure sensitive adhesives. Broad compatibility of this product facilitates use of wide selection of co-tackifiers to customize such properties as specific adhesion, shear strength, open time, peel strength, etc. Soluble in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, esters, ketones and chlorinated solvents. Insoluble in alcohol and water.
SYLVALITE RE® 105L is a pentaerythritol ester of rosin with a higher softening point than typical products of its type. It has been stabilized to provide outstanding heat and aging stability. The stability, low volatility and polymer compatibility of this product make it useful in a wide variety of adhesives and other applications where improved heat resistance and shear strength are required. Soluble in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, esters, ketones and chlorinated solvents. Insoluble in alcohol and water.
SYLVALITE® RE 110L is a light-colored, higher softening point, pentaerythritol ester of rosin, which has been stabilized to provide excellent heat and aging stability. It provides particularly good skinning resistance and color stability in Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) hot melt adhesives when compared with other products of its type. Soluble in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, esters, ketones and chlorinated solvents. Insoluble in alcohol and water.
SYLVALITE® RE 115 is a rosin ester based on highly stabilized rosin acids. It is neutral in odor, has a high softening point and excellent thermal stability. SYLVALITE® RE 115 has been developed especially for hot melt adhesives requiring high temperature resistance. SYLVALITE® RE 115 is suitable for adhesive formulations where high heat resistance and good flexibility at low temperatures are required. The very light color and excellent thermal stability makes SYLVALITE® RE 115 an excellent resin for high performance adhesives. Soluble in aromatics, esters and ketones, partially soluble in white spirits and insoluble in alcohols.
SYLVALITE® 9000 is a biobased rosin ester tackifier that combines differentiated adhesion with light color and advanced stability. It has 93% biobased content, excellent thermal stability, and enables low maintenance and minimal downtime in pakcaging lines for EVA based formulations. SYLVALITE® 9000 is soluble in aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents, esters, ketones, and long chain alchols. Features FDA and European Plastics Directive food contact approval.
