Hydrogenated Rosin

Hydrogenated Rosin (CAS 65997-06-0) is a chemically stabilized resin derived from pine-sourced gum or wood rosin through catalytic hydrogenation.

Where is Hydrogenated Rosin used?

• Adhesives: tackifier, plasticizer and rheology modifier in pressure-sensitive and hot-melt systems, improving tack, peel strength, color stability and aging resistance over unmodified rosin grades
• Coatings: film formation, gloss and substrate adhesion in printing inks and overprint varnishes on paper and packaging
• Rubber compounding: softener and processing aid in tire and mechanical goods
• Textile sizing and paper coating formulations modify surface properties and improve fiber or substrate bonding.

Good to know: Acid value and softening point are the primary grade-defining parameters buyers should confirm against application requirements.
