Features & Benefits

 - Product Highlights
 - TRAPYLEN®187 EAC has a bit lower chlorine content compared to the similar TRAPYLEN®186 EAC but, as well, good compatibility with other resins and polymers and excellent pigment wetting.
 - The cured film has a high gloss and very good chemical and aging resistance.
 - The main merit of TRAPYLEN® 187 EAC is the outstanding adhesion on untreated polypropylene, PP/EPDM thermoplastic rubber and with limitations - on polyethylene.
 - The resistance against fatty oil and grease is limited and must be compensated by using it with low chlorinated TRAPYLEN®grades.
 - It is only recommended as a binder resin for screen printing inks and as an adhesion promoter in plastic paints and solvent based contact adhesives on NR/SBR/polychloroprene basis.
