Unilene B‐120 LN
Descrip on:
Thermoplas c hydrocarbon resin C9 is obtained from cataly c polymeriza on of hydrocarbons in
a con nuous process. Compa ble with most solvents and polymeric materials, it has
hydrophobic characteris cs and has a format of light yellow pellets. Unilene® B‐120 LN has a
controlled naphthalene content, which allows for a less evident odor when compared to regular
C9 hydrocarbon resins.
In rubbers, Unilene improves processability, filler incorpora on, dispersion and mass adhesion,
avoiding elastomer degrada on and reducing prepara on me. In Solvent and Hot Melt
adhesives, the resin promotes good adhesion, cohesion, excellent open me and water
repellency.
Applica ons:
Hot melt adhesives (EVA, metallocene PE and PSA) and solvent based , In addi on, the product
can be used for seals and sealants, paints and varnishes (road marking, prin ng inks, aluminum
and protec ve, epoxy and alkyd systems), res and rubber ar facts and polymer modifica on.

Packaging and Storage:
The resins are supplied in 25 ± 0.2 kg polyethylene bags and are supplied in pellet format. Hydrocarbon resins have
thermoplas c characteris cs, they can agglomerate when submi ed to high temperatures and / or under pressure (stacking). It
is recommended to store the product in fresh place, free from direct sunlight, moisture and without stacking the pallets, also
avoiding direct contact with the soil.
