PC Resin

Polycarbonate (PC) plastics are a naturally transparent amorphous thermoplastic.

PC is commonly used for plastic lenses in eyewear, automotive components, protective gear, greenhouses, Digital Disks (CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray), and exterior lighting fixtures.Polycarbonate also has very good heat resistance and can be combined with flame retardant materials without significant material degradation.

I-MARV ™ (hydrogenated petroleum resin) from Idemitsu

I-MARV ™ (hydrogenated petroleum resin) is a colorless and transparent petroleum resin that we have independently developed based on the polymerization and hydrogenation technologies that we have cultivated over many years.

When I-MARV ™ (hydrogenated petroleum resin) is used as a hot melt adhesive (HMA), it exhibits a well-balanced performance in terms of heat resistance, cold resistance, and adhesiveness. Adding I-MARV ™ (hydrogenated petroleum resin) to BOPP film *1 improves transparency, rigidity, water vapor barrier properties, etc.

Features

This is a DCPD (dicyclopentadiene)/aromatic copolymer hydrogenated petroleum resin that uses C5 fraction as the main raw material.
Because it is highly hydrogenated, it is colorless, transparent, and odorless, and has excellent thermal stability and heat resistance.
Shows good compatibility with polyolefins, EVA resins, and various elastomers.

Purpose

I-MARV ™ (hydrogenated petroleum resin) is available in two types: partially hydrogenated S type and fully hydrogenated P type, and its many excellent properties allow it to be used in a wide range of applications.

Hot melt adhesive (HMA) tackifier
Tackifier for pressure sensitive adhesives/adhesives
Resin modifier for polyolefin
Rubber compounds, etc.
