Product Description
Also known as rosin, gum rosin is a natural resin extracted from pine trees. Primarily produced by heating fresh liquid resin to evaporate the volatile components. This process will leave behind a semi-transparent and brittle solid ranging in color from pale yellow to dark amber.
Its glassy and brittle nature with its tendency to become sticky when heated are counted as its main characteristics. Soluble in organic solvents like ether, alcohol, and chloroform but insoluble in water, this resin can be very helpful to produce several resin acids, including abietic acid. Because of its adhesive and film-forming properties, it is considered as an important raw material in numerous industries.
Its importance increases as it is a natural and eco-friendly ingredient. To provide the significant tackiness and bonding strength to pressure-sensitive adhesives, hot-melt adhesives, and various general-purpose adhesives, gum rosin is highly valuable in the adhesive industry.
