Alcohol Soluble Maleic Resin
Alcohol Soluble Maleic Resin
Alcohol Soluble Maleic Resins are specially engineered resins designed for excellent solubility in alcohol-based systems. They deliver superior gloss, strong adhesion, fast-drying performance, and excellent pigment wetting—making them ideal for high-performance coatings and printing ink applications.
Key Features & Benefits
- Excellent Alcohol Solubility – Dissolves easily in ethanol and other alcohol-based solvents.
- High Gloss Finish – Produces clear, glossy films for enhanced visual appeal.
- Strong Adhesion – Bonds effectively to the paper, film, and other substrates.
- Fast Drying – Supports the high-speed printing and the coating operations.
- Superior Pigment Wetting – Ensures uniform color dispersion and improved print clarity.
- Good Flow & Levelling – Promotes smooth film formation without defects.
- High Film Hardness – Enhances the scratch resistance and the durability product.
Main Applications
Alcohol Soluble Maleic Resins are widely used in:
● Flexographic printing inks
● Gravure printing inks
● Overprint varnishes (OPV)
● Paper coatings
● Alcohol-based surface and foundry coatings
