CAS number 64742-16-1/69430-35-9/88526-47-0
C9 hydrocarbon tackifiers are used in adhesives, particularly hot melt adhesives, to provide outstanding tack and to optimise surface adhesion. C9 hydrocarbon tackifiers are also used in the production of rubber articles, including tyre re-treads, to ensure optimal adhesion between the different layer of rubber. C9 hydrocarbon tackifiers are also used in road marking paints to ensure outstanding performance and to ensure excellent durability in use. These resins are used in some industrial and marine coatings to enhance durability. We have aliphatic (hydrogenated) grades and aromatic (non-hydrogenated) grades available.

EINECS number 201-159-0
///
CAS number 78-93-3
Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is a clear, colorless, and flammable liquid with a slightly sweet odor. It is a common organic solvent with a wide range of industrial applications.
MEK is primarily used as a solvent in various industries, including the manufacturing of adhesives, coatings, and plastics. It is also used as a cleaning agent, particularly for removing oils and greases from metal surfaces. MEK is a highly effective solvent for many organic materials, including resins, waxes, and oils.
In addition to its solvent properties, MEK is also used as a chemical intermediate in the production of other chemicals, such as methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) and peroxides. MEK can also be used as a fuel additive or a component in some special fuels.
MEK is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that can contribute to air pollution and potentially pose health risks to those exposed to it. Proper safety measures, including proper ventilation and protective equipment, should be taken when working with MEK to minimize exposure.

EINECS number 203-550-1
///
CAS number 108-10-1
Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) is a colorless organic compound with a pleasant odor. It is a solvent that is widely used in various industrial applications due to its excellent solvency properties and moderate evaporation rate.
MIBK is commonly used as a solvent in coatings, paints, and printing inks. It is also used as a solvent in the manufacture of adhesives, varnishes, and rubber-based products. Additionally, MIBK is used as a chemical intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other chemicals.
MIBK can also be used as a denaturant for alcohol, making it unsuitable for human consumption. In the laboratory, MIBK is used as a solvent in various chemical reactions, such as the extraction of alkaloids from plants and the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates.
It is important to handle MIBK with care, as it is a flammable liquid that can cause skin and eye irritation upon contact. Protective equipment and proper handling procedures should be used when working with this compound. MIBK also has a low flash point and should be stored and transported in accordance with appropriate safety regulations.

CAS number 68425-17-2,1259528-21-6
Sorbitol Syrup 70% – High-Purity Polyol for Food, Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals
Sorbitol Syrup 70% is an aqueous solution of polyols with 70% total solids, produced through catalytic hydrogenation of starch hydrolysates. This clear, sweet-tasting syrup is widely used in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries due to its unique functional properties. It is non-crystallizing, has excellent moisture-retention capabilities, and serves as a sugar substitute in a wide range of reduced-sugar or sugar-free formulations.
For more information on polyols and their applications, you can visit the International Polyol Association.
In the food industry, Sorbitol Syrup is commonly used as a low-calorie sweetener in reduced-sugar products. It is especially valuable in baking, where it acts as a plasticizer, maintaining softness and extending shelf life by slowing down the staling process. It is also used as a humectant in cookies, peanut butter, fruit preserves, and other low-moisture foods, helping to keep products moist and fresh over time.
In cosmetics and personal care, Sorbitol Syrup functions as a humectant and thickening agent. It helps retain moisture in products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, moisturizing creams, and lotions. Its gentle nature and hydrating properties make it ideal for skin and oral care applications.
Sorbitol also finds specialized applications in other industries. It is used as a cryoprotectant additive—when combined with sucrose and sodium polyphosphates—in the production of surimi, a processed fish paste. It also serves as a moisture-retaining agent in certain tobacco products such as cigarettes.
