ELVACE® 40705-00

ELVACE® 40705-00 is used in packaging adhesives and waterborne adhesives. It features excellent adhesion, good hydrolysis resistance, good toughness, increased viscosity, and short bond development time. The product has low grit content and resists plasticizer migration but has poor borax tolerance. It functions as a binder and resin in CASE ingredients and as a resin in plastics and elastomers.
