FutureChem® EHMA by FutureFuel Chemical Company is a methacrylate monomer with an ester like odor. It is used to impart hydrophobicity, flexibility, scratch resistance, chemical resistance, adhesion and weatherability.

• FutureChem® EHMA is used in adhesives, sealants, textile and leather finishes.

Pearlbond™ 920L distributed by Bjørn Thorsen is an plasticizer-free thermoplastic polyurethane. It is a translucent resin with excellent color stability upon UV exposure. It is suitable for processing by slot dye extrusion, blown extrusion, melt blown, roll-coating and gravure.

• Provides enhanced UV resistance and durability, ensuring consistent performance and protection against environmental elements.
• It exhibits excellent adhesion to various fabrics and offers high wash resistance.
• It delivers high hydrolytic resistance, good recovery, and breathability.
• Pearlbond™ 920L is recommended for hot melt adhesive applications in seam tapes, webs, and furniture edge banding, ensuring reliable bonding performance.
• It is used in textiles, interlinings, heat-transfer labels, footwear and non-food conveyor belts.

Solprene® 4301 by Dynasol is a BHT/TNPP-free linear block copolymer of styrene and butadiene. This gel-free grade has a non-staining antioxidant system. It provides high resistance to stress and very good cohesive strength-tack balance. Solprene® 4301 is recommended for use in solvent-based-, hot-melt- and pressure sensitive adhesives. It is suitable for labels and footwear. This grade is FDA approved for use in food contact applications.

Pearlstick™ 46-10/01 distributed by Bjørn Thorsen is a linear, elastic, aromatic thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). Exhibits a very high crystallization rate and a very high thermoplasticity level. It enables the production of solvent-based adhesives with high solids content and low viscosity. The addition of a polyfunctional isocyanate improves the heat-resistance and the strength of the joints. Pearlstick™ 46-10/01 is used in wood and shoe industries.

GLOBALPRENE™ 3545 by LCY Group is a styrene-butadiene block copolymer. It features a linear structure with high diblock content and is fully reprocessable.

• It is recommended for use in transparent shoe soles, plastic modification, mechanical parts, compounding applications and adhesives.
• It complies with with TSCA, DSL, EINECS/ELINCS, REACH, AICS, NZIoC, KECL, ENCS, PICCS, IECSC and ECSI.
• GLOBALPRENE™ 3545 is ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certified

Pearlstick™ 45-90/06 distributed by Bjørn Thorsen is a linear, elastic, aromatic thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with a small amount of anti-adherent in the formulation. It shows low crystallization rate and low thermoplasticity level and good hydrolysis resistance.

• It is used in the production of adhesives for different kinds of materials such as leather, textiles, rubber and a variety of plastics (plasticized PVC, PU elastomers).
• The addition of a polyfunctional isocyanate to improves the heat-resistance and the strength of the joints.
• Its addition to other different types of Pearlstick™ increases their open-times.
• It enables the production of adhesives with a very long open-time, which can be used as one- or two-component adhesives.
• Pearlstick™ 45-90/06 is suitable for solvent-based adhesives.
