Ricobond 1731 is a viscous, brown liquid polymer composed of low molecular weight polybutadiene functionalized with maleic anhydride. It serves as an effective adhesion promoter and reactive compatibilizer, enhancing bonding in rubber compounds, adhesives, sealants, coatings, and encapsulants. Its maleic anhydride groups enable strong reactions with epoxy, amine, and hydroxyl groups, providing moisture resistance and compatibility with both polar and non-polar materials.

RICOBOND 1731 HS is a powdered maleinized polybutadiene dispersion combined with amorphous silica for easy handling. This free-flowing powder enhances adhesion in rubber compounds to metals and textiles, offering excellent reactivity and moisture resistance. It serves as a reactive toughener and compatibilizer, ideal for elastomers, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and electronics applications.

Ricobond® 7004 is a water-based functional aliphatic polymer offered as a stable, low-viscosity aqueous dispersion of maleic anhydride-functional polybutadiene. It forms a durable, hydrophobic film resistant to acids and bases, enhancing elastomer-to-textile adhesion. Ideal for textile treatment, adhesives, metal coatings, and fiber sizing.

Ricon® 131 MA20 is a viscous, amber liquid polybutadiene functionalized with maleic anhydride, designed to enhance adhesion in rubber compounds to metals and textiles. It serves as a reactive compatibilizer in thermoplastics and reacts with epoxy, amine, and hydroxyl groups, making it ideal for adhesives, sealants, coatings, and encapsulants. Its strengths include excellent reactivity, moisture resistance, and compatibility with both polar and non-polar materials.
