Global C5 HCR Market Overview:
Aliphatic hydrocarbon resins (C5 Resins) are made from C5 piperylene and its derivatives. C5 resins are aliphatic in nature and are fully compatible with natural rubber, LDPE, and elastomers with low polarity. C5 resins provide excellent tack and have enhanced heat stability. C5 resins have found major applications in the adhesive and hot melt industry. C5 resins, with paints, provide water resistance, UV, and chemical protection. The rubber industry is another sector with a wide range of applications for C5 resins.
C5 HCR Market Forecast and Trends
Growth Drivers
Excellent adhesive strength with enhanced thermal and chemical stability.
C5 HCR has excellent adhesive properties. C5 HCR also protects acids, bases, and water. When used with paints and coatings, they provide excellent gloss, tack, and adhesion to the paints. Therefore, they are used extensively in the automotive industry. Owing to their aliphatic nature, C5 resins are compatible with all-natural rubber, and most olefins, and are used to reduce the tacky nature of natural rubber. In recent years, the natural...
