Polymers for Adhesives

The applications for adhesives are almost limitless.

From shipping labels to construction adhesives, masking tape to removable films, adhesives are a fixture in everyday life. Formulating an adhesive is often about finding the right combination of tack, peel and shear for a given application and substrate.

MCP offers products to suit most surfaces, from metals like copper and stainless steel to glass and ceramics and even very low-energy surfaces like polyethylene. These products consist of many acrylic and styrene acrylic emulsion polymers, and styrene butadiene latexes that have a balance of properties to fit adhesive application requirements. Formulations can be created with Rovene® products by including tackifiers, fillers, pigments and additives as appropriate.
