Acrylic resin Paraloid B44, 400g

Thermoplastic acrylic resin that provides an excellent combination of hardness, flexibility and adhesion to various substrates.

PARALOID ® B-44 allows a wide possibility of use in the formulation of solvents and for the surface defense of metals, forming a film harder than the other Paraloids, perfectly adhesive. PARALOID ® B-44 is elastic and resistant to various mechanical and chemical stresses, resistant to the most adverse climatic conditions, to acids, alcohols, detergents and lubricants. Unalterable to heat.

100% acrylic resin based on ethyl methyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate, particularly suitable for use as protection of metals (copper, brass, zinc etc.) or for the preparation of protective paints for metals.

Features: Methyl methacrylate copolymer

Appearance: transparent granules

Glass transition temperature: 60 ° C

Excellent hardness, good flexibility, great adhesion on various substrates, especially on metals.

Soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons, esters or ketones (for example: acetone, ethyl acetate, toluene)

Application procedure: 

Prepare the paint with 20% solid resin on the total solution. To avoid long dissolution times, it is advisable to stir the solvent, and to operate at temperatures above 15 ° C. It is not recommended to prepare solutions with a percentage of resin greater than 30%, as they would be too viscous. Once ready, apply with a brush.
