- PARALOID™ B-72 100% Solid Grade Thermoplastic Acrylic Resin is a lower Tg (40 degrees C) acrylic resin capable of forming softer films.The approximate hardness (KHN) is 10–11 compared to 12–13 for PARALOID™ B-66 Thermoplastic Solution Resin.
- PARALOID™ B-72 100% Solid Grade Thermoplastic Acrylic Resin is unique in possessing a high tolerance for ethanol. The property allows its use in applications not tolerant of strong
- solvents. The alcohol dispersions may be cloudy or milky. However, they form clear, coherent films.
- PARALOID™ B-72 100% Solid Grade Thermoplastic Acrylic Resin has low reactivity with sensitive phosphorescent and luminescent pigments to produce stable, durable, non-yellowing coatings. It is compatible with vinyls, cellulosics, and silicones. It is well suited for white and metallic aerosols, clear coatings for wood, coatings for general product finishing, pigment dispersion (fluorescent), and flexographic printing inks.

- Note
Drying the coatings at 300°F for 30 minutes simulates final properties of the resin.
- The white lacquers were formulated at a titanium dioxide/binder ratio (solids basis) of 30/70. The properties were determined after coatings were sprayed on Bonderite 1000.
- The degree of cracking at the bend over each mandrel is rated on a 0 (no failure) to 10 (complete flaking) scale.
- The degree of flaking at the scribed cross hatch is rated on a 0 (no failure) to 5 (complete lift off) scale.

Safety & Health
- Handling Precautions
- Keep combustible and/or flammable products and their vapors away from heat, sparks, flames and other sources of ignition including static discharge. Processing or operating at temperatures near or above product flashpoint may pose a fire hazard. Use appropriate grounding and bonding techniques to manage static discharge hazards.
- Failure to maintain proper volume level when using immersion heaters can expose tank and solution to excessive heat resulting in a possible combustion hazard, particularly when plastic tanks are used.
