Supplied byThomas Swan- Last Updated on Jun 9, 2025

CASAMID® 872 by Thomas Swan is a medium-viscosity, alcohol-soluble polyamide resin. It is highly compatible with nitrocellulose, supporting flexible formulation adjustments for a wide range of solvent-based ink systems.
  • It has lower water resistance than CASAMID® 873, 874, and 876, but its strong anti-blocking properties make it ideal for inks where preventing layer adhesion is critical.
  • It offers balanced flow, good abrasion resistance and optimal film formation.
  • It features a low odor profile, ideal for packaging applications.
  • CASAMID® 872 provides excellent gelation resistance, minimizing storage and application issues.
  • It provides smooth and uniform ink flow, excellent adhesion, and consistent print quality in flexographic printing.
  • It delivers a durable, protective finish in lacquers and coatings.
  • It enhances the gloss and protective qualities of overprint varnishes without compromising the ink performance.
  • It has a shelf life of 12 months.
