A hard, thermoplastic acrylic copolymer designed as a performance additive or primary resin for demanding coating and ink formulations. The combination of MMA (hard monomer) and BMA (softer monomer) yields a specific balance of hardness and flexibility.

• Form (Powder): Ensures easy handling, storage stability, and simplified blending with other powder components
• High Tg (75°C): Confirms hard heat resistance - films will be rigid with good resistance to blocking and heat distortion
• Moderate Mw (40,000 g/mol): Provides balance between solution viscosity and film durability properties
• Acid Value (10.0 mgKOH/g): Enhances adhesion to polar substrates and improves compatibility with other resins
• Low Moisture (≤0.5%): Prevents coating defects and ensures stability in moisture-sensitive formulations

• Hard, Durable, Heat Resistant: Achieved through high Tg and polymer backbone composition
• Fast Tack-Free: Results from hard polymer matrix and good solvent release characteristics
• Excellent Adhesion to Plastics: Enhanced by acid functional groups and balanced solubility/miscibility
• Broad Compatibility: Dissolves in common solvents and blends well with other film-formers like nitrocellulose

• Marine & Plastic Coatings: Requires durability, chemical resistance, and adhesion
• Gravure & Screen Inks: Benefits from fast-drying nature, good adhesion, and solvent compatibility

This versatile performance acrylic resin provides an optimal blend of hardness and durability, substrate adhesion, and formulation flexibility. It is ideally suited for formulators seeking to enhance hardness, drying speed, and plastic adhesion in high-performance coating and ink systems.
