It's obvious that petroleum resin has become a necessary part in all fields, and at the same time it has been used widely, for example in the oil industry. But we have less knowledge and knowing about what's the petroleum resin, what's made of, where is used and so on. So we figure it's necessary to give you a professional introduction of petroleum resin, hope you can get what you hope to know.
First of all, we would like to tell you what's the petroleum resin. To be specific, it is a kind of thermal plasticizing hydrocarbon resinproduced 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. Petroleum resin, also known 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.
In addition, it isn't a high polymer but a low polymer with the molecular weight between 300-3000. 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 tire, and asphalt applications.
