C5 petroleum resin is a thermoplastic resin made by polymerizing C5 fractions from petroleum cracking. It's a widely used aliphatic petroleum resin in hot-melt adhesives, rubber compounding (especially in tire production), road marking paints etc. What can help make final products more sticky, heat-resistant, and maintain color stability.
The main product characteristics of C5 petroleum resin as below
*Low Molecular Weight
The Molecular weight is normally around 800-2500, turning excellent solubility in organic solvents such as toluene and acetone, and uniform dispersion when mixed with polymers.
*Low Odor
No irritating odor, meets the environmental protection requirements for packaging and household products (passed RoHS testing). If extremely low odor required, we suggest hydrogenated C5 resin model.
*Broad Compatibility
Good compatibility with SBS, SIS rubber, EVA, etc., and can be flexibly formulated into various adhesive/rubber formulas. We suggest to conduct compatibility testing before mixing with polar resins such as rosin.

With our 25years experience on resin production, our products turns excellent ability as below
Excellent hydrophobicity
Moisture absorption rate<0.1%, and maintains viscosity stability even in humid environments.
Excellent tackifying effect
Initial adhesion increased by 30-50%, what can significantly improve the instant adhesion of pressure-sensitive adhesives and hot melt adhesives.
Excellent thermal stability
Softening Point 90-120°C, showing stable resistance in high temperature. It can keep no decomposition in high-temperature coating of hot melt adhesive (160-180 ° C).
Customized products
We can customize the softening point and color according to customer requirements to meet their special process needs (such as 120 ° C high softening point models)

Application
Rubber industrys
It's wildly used as additives in tires and rubber products, what can enhance the adhesion and processing performance of rubber products, and reduce production costs. According to customer feedback, The tensile strength can increase 15% after adding 5% C5 resin to the sole rubber. It also can be used as a thickening resin in rubber mixing, which can increase mixing uniformity and improve extrusion process.

Adhesive industry
C5 hydrocarbon resin can enhances the initial adhesion and holding strength of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), suitable for products like labels, tapes, protective films, etc. In hot melt adhesive production,it can optimize the wettability, improve fluidity, and accelerate curing speed. Especially suitable for adhesive products such as packaging and furniture edge sealing

Paint products
It works excellent for road marking paint and industrial coatings, such as anti-corrosion paint for vessels. it can improve the wear resistance and weather resistance of coatings, and extend their service life.

Printing ink
We suggest to use low molecular weight resin models as ink binders to enhance pigment dispersion and improve printing glossiness.

Other products
It's a good addtive for products such as sealants and sealants, the resin viscosity can be adjusted to meet different construction requirements, improving the flexibility and adhesion of the final product.

Package & Storage
Package
25kg/bag, 500kg bag, customized package service avalible.
Storage
Keep the bag sealed to avoid moisture absorption and clumping.
Stored in a cool and dry place (recommended below 25 ° C), avoid direct sunlight.
Long term high temperature storage may cause color darkening.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between C5 and C9 petroleum resins? How to choose?
A: C5 resin has lighter color and better compatibility, what is suitable for light colored products.
C9 resin has stronger heat resistance but darker color. Selection criteria:
Need high transparency/low chromaticity → Choose C5
Need high heat resistance/low cost → Choose C9
Q: What are the advantages of C5 hydrocarbon resin compared to other thickening resins, such as rosin resin?
A: Compared with rosin resin and other natural resins, C5 petroleum resin has better aging resistance, less prone to yellowing, and more stable price since it's not affected by resin production situation. But C5 resin has slightly lower initial viscosity.
Q: What are the minimum order quantity and delivery time?
A: The MOQ is usually 1000kg, but we also support small sample trial for testing.
Normally, cargo can be ready within 1-2weeks after payment date.
