Braskem America A-100 is a thermoplastic hydrocarbon resin C9 obtained through catalytic polymerization of hydrocarbons in a continuous process. These light yellow pellets exhibit hydrophobic characteristics and are compatible with various solvents and polymeric materials. In rubber applications, A-100, also known as Unilene, enhances processability, filler incorporation, dispersion, and adhesion, preventing elastomer degradation and reducing preparation time. In Solvent and Hot Melt adhesives, this resin promotes excellent adhesion, cohesion, open time, and water repellency.
