Staybelite® Resin

Staybelite® Resin is gum rosin that has been partially hydrogenated via a catalytic process. It is a pale, thermoplastic, acidic resin, Hydrogenation makes this resin highly resistant to oxidation and discoloration and to changes in solubility characteristics, when it is exposed to air and heat. In these respects, it is greatly superior to ordinary non- hydrogenated rosins.

Storage & Handling

Storage Information

Stability of about 6 months in standard storage conditions, sheltered and temperature-controlled (<25°C). No stacking of pallets. Remove the plastic film protection from the pallet once correctly stored. As this product is sensitive to gradual oxidation and to compaction, appropriate storage and a strict inventory control is critical (oldest material used first) especially during hot periods. Over time, storage at higher temperature and pressure (from stacking pallets) will accelerate re-massing of this product.
