VINNOL® Dispersions

VINNOL® is used to render textile fabrics flame resistant.

VINNOL® dispersions are used as binders in the manufacture of nonwovens and in textile coating. Special ethylene-vinyl chloride grades are available under the brand name VINNOL® EVCL, specifically for these applications. Specific properties take the main role, depending on the field of application.

Advantages in Textile Applications

  • Good flame resistance
  • Excellent bonding to textiles
  • High abrasion resistance

VINNOL® Solid Resins

VINNOL® allows the seal-bond strength, e.g. In blister packs, to be precisely matched to the application.

Thanks to their outstanding adhesion profile, VINNOL® solid resins are used in, for example, heat-sealing lacquers, printing inks and industrial coatings. The highly developed product portfolio is based on over 60 years’ experience with a broad spectrum of different, completely mutually compatible polymer resins. It is therefore possible to modify the properties of heat-sealing lacquers, printing inks and coatings precisely to requirements.

  • Very good adhesion to various metals and plastics
  • Excellent water and chemical resistance
  • Very good mechanical resistance
  • Very good high and low-temperature resistance
  • Broad formulation range
