Petroleum resin is a C5/C9 aromatic hydrocarbon used in industrial applications. It has a tackifying effect and is suitable for use in paint, printing ink, adhesives, rubber and other areas where tackiness is required.

Petroleum Resin also knowns as Petroleum Hydrocarbon Resin,is a kind of Hydrocarbon resins produced by C5 fraction and C9 fraction,by products of petroleum cracking,through pretreatment,polymerization and distillation.It isn't a high polymer but a low polymer with the molecular weight between 300-3000.Featared by acid value,easy mutual solubilities,resistant to water,resistant to ethanol and chemicals.

It has the chemical stabilizing property to acid and alkaline,viscosity adjusting and thermal stabilizing. Generally,the resins are not used independently,but have to be used together with other kinds of resins as promoters,adjusting agents and modifiers in Paint,Ink,Coating,Adhesive,Rubber Tyre, asphalt in a wide applications.

It is a kind of thermal plasticizing hydrocarbon resin produced by C5, C9 fraction, by-products of petroleum cracking, through pretreatment, polymerization and distillation. It isn't a high polymer but a low polymer with the molecular weight between 300-3000. Featured by acid value, easy mutual solubilities, resistant to water, resistant to ethanol and chemicals. It has the chemical stabilizing property to acid and alkaline, viscosity adjusting and thermal stabilizing,

Generally, the petroleum resins are not used independently, but have to be used together with other kinds of resins as promoters, adjusting agents and modifiers in hot melt adhesive, pressure-sensitive adhesive, hot melt road marking paint,rubber tires and so on.
