Teckros® H80 is a glycerol ester of highly hydrogenated rosin, offering excellent oxidative and heat stability. The hydrogenation process enhances stabilization, compatibility, and adhesive performance, particularly with acrylics and SBC polymers. It is used as a binder, resin, and tackifier in pressure-sensitive adhesives and polymer coatings. Teckros® H80 is compatible with a range of polymers, including butyl rubber, natural rubber, chloroprene rubber, styrene butadiene rubber, styrene isoprene butadiene, ethylene vinyl acetate, and styrene isoprene styrene. The product complies with FDA 21 CFR 176.180, 175.125, 176.170, 175.105, and 175.300 regulations.
