WACKER Boosts Supply for Surface Coating Resins

Munich, Feb 03, 2010

WACKER, the Munich-based chemical company, is boosting delivery capacity for VINNOL® surface coating resins. Starting Q1 2011, the amount of VINNOL® H 15 available for delivery will rise substantially. Recent developments have led to the consolidation of the binder-market and a scarcity of copolymeric vinyl-chloride binders. By increasing product availability, WACKER is playing a key role in ensuring the availability of raw-materials and meeting its responsibilities as a market leader in packaging coatings.

VINNOL® surface coating resins are vinyl-chloride/vinyl-acetate copolymers and terpolymers, available in a number of different molar compositions and polymerization degrees. The product portfolio includes grades without functional groups as well as grades with carboxyl or hydroxyl groups. VINNOL® surface coating resins are used mainly as binders for printing inks, adhesives, and industrial and packaging coatings.
