RHOPLEX® N-495 is an acrylic copolymer designed specifically as a base for adhesives. As supplied, this unique acrylic emulsion exhibits controlled rheological behavior. This enables the adhesives formulator to obtain predictable flow properties, such as uniform adhesive deposition and a controlled glue line on high-speed, high-shear laminating machinery. In addition, RHOPLEX® N- 495 has excellent "wet-grab."

PM-2000-90 is an MDI-based polyester polyol urethane binder. It is designed for use in systems where medium processing times are required and lipophobic characteristics are desired.

RHOPLEX® ST-954 is an APE free acrylic emulsion used in the manufacture of soft and durable nonwoven webs such as those used in apparel interlinings or interfacings. Webs using this binder possess excellent resistance to degradation from dry cleaning and laundering together with the softness required of typical apparel applications. Nonwovens bonded with RHOPLEX® ST-954 not only have the strength characteristics of stiffer binders, and binders of comparable softness crosslinked with a melamine- formaldehyde resin, but do so without compromising hand. The improved balance of strength and softness in this acrylic binder results from an advanced emulsion manufacturing technology.
