"Elvacite" resins are available as minute spherical beads in grades that differ widely in such properties as hardness, flexibility, solubility and solution viscosity. Compatibility with a variety lf film formers and plasticizers permits further modification to achieve the exact properties desired.

  The "Elvacite" resins are thermoplastic. They are thermally stable up to 177-232¡ÆC (351-450¡ÆF), will above their softening range. At higher temperatures, i.e., about 260¡ÆC (500¡ÆF) or above, they undergo smooth depolymerization to monomers, leaving negligible ash.

  "Elvacite" acrylic resins have a wide range of molecular weight, flexibility and functionality, and are particularly will suited for protective and decorative coatings for plastics, metals, concrete, wood and paper.
