Industrial Grade Glyceryl Rosinate, also known as Glycerol Ester of Gum Rosin (GEGR) or Ester Gum, is a crucial polyol ester of rosin specifically designed for industrial applications. Unlike its food-grade counterpart, this product primarily caters to the specific performance and cost-efficiency demands of industrial sectors.
It is commonly utilised across specialty industries such as adhesives, coatings, and paints. In the adhesive sector, it serves as a low-cost enhancer for hot-melt, pressure-sensitive, and other types of adhesives.
Furthermore, Industrial Grade Glyceryl Rosinate is a key component in the production of various polymers, including EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), acrylics, polyurethanes, SIS (styrene-isoprene-styrene), and SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene), contributing to their excellent performance characteristics.
