CHEMIGUM® LATEX 550 is an anionic aqueous dispersion of a carboxylated butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer that includes a non-staining, non-discoloring antioxidant. This product offers key features such as excellent abrasion resistance, mechanical properties, resistance to hydrocarbons and oils, and the ability to be crosslinked with melamine formaldehyde or zinc oxide, with the option of sulfur curing for enhanced properties. It also demonstrates good heat aging resistance.

CHEMIGUM® LATEX 6387 is a NBR latex grade that is designed to be easily and evenly flocculated by salts in the beater addition process. Its key applications include fber & cellulose paper gaskets, brake lining, abrasive papers, and  ahesives and primers.

EMULTEX 585 is a polyvinyl alcohol stabilised vinyl acetate homopolymer dispersion. EMULTEX 585 has been developed as a fast setting, clean running cost effective base for packaging, wood and ceramic tile adhesives. EMULTEX 585 is particularly characterised by its near Newtonian low shear rheology which confers excellent viscosity stability with varying machine speeds.

Litex S 7640 is an aqueous, anionic dispersion of a selfcrosslinking butadiene styrene copolymer containing a nonstaining antioxidant. Litex S 7640 is an excellent binder for fibres and mainly used as a binder for technical textiles, nonwovens and glass fibre fabrics. After drying and crosslinking at temperatures above 140°C, the polymer forms a soft, tack free film with excellent water and alkali resistance. Litex S 7640 can be applied by all common techniques, such as total impregnation, spraying and print bonding.
