Liquid Product Form
Liquid tackifier resins are used as low molecular weight additions to plasticize and reduce formulation viscosity, promote tack, and enhance low-temperature adhesion. They differ from plasticizing oils in their ability to soften and tackify. Oils only soften and do not contribute to tackification. The preferred packaging for liquid resins is open head, 200 liter steel drums. For larger volumes, heated semi-bulk and bulk tank trucks are commonly used.
