ROSIN Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Rosin is a natural resin obtained from the exudate of pine trees and other conifers. It appears as a brittle, translucent solid that ranges in color from yellow to dark brown. Rosin is widely used in various industrial applications due to its adhesive, tackifying, and emulsifying properties. In the adhesives industry, it serves as a key ingredient in the formulation of pressure-sensitive adhesives, hot-melt adhesives, and rubber-based adhesives. Rosin is also used in the production of varnishes, coatings, and printing inks, providing excellent gloss and hardness. In the paper industry, it is employed as a sizing agent to improve paper's resistance to water and ink. Additionally, rosin is used in the manufacture of soaps, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Its versatility and natural origin make it a valuable chemical in numerous applications, although proper handling and storage are essential to maintain its quality and effectiveness.
