Discover MCTRON's revolutionary emulsion polymer technology that provides exceptional water repellency and adhesion properties for a wide range of industrial applications.
PermaPel® is a unique patented emulsion polymer "system" that provides exceptional adhesion and water resistance to a wide range of substrates including low energy surfaces like aluminum, nylon, and polyolefins. PermaPel® Technology can be customized by MCTRON for most acrylic, styrene acrylic, and vinyl acrylic applications over a broad Tg range and viscosity adjustments are possible to meet processing parameters. The PermaPel® system is easy to formulate and is FDA compliant for food contact under 21CFR §176.170 and 21CFR §176.180. PermaPel® is very cost effective, formaldehyde free and can be produced as resin supported or surfactant stabilized. Cross-linked options are also possible. PermaPel® is used in a wide spectrum of applications such as paper, barrier coatings for food packaging, textile, non-woven, adhesive and a wide range of other industrial applications. PermaPel® products can be applied by a number of techniques including rod coater, flexo press, gravure, size press, spray and roller.
PermaPel® 2002-WR
PermaPel® 2002-WR emulsion is a very soft, non-tacky binder that is a self-crosslinking, carboxylated, styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsion. Films of this emulsion exhibit excellent resistance to discoloration and are also characterized by their superior water repellency. Use where flexibility, water repellency, wash durability and superior aging characteristics are required. It also adheres exceptionally to low energy surfaces.
PermaPel® SA-4073
PermaPel® SA-4073 emulsion is a formaldehyde-free, carboxylated, styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsion. Films of this emulsion are very soft and exhibit excellent resistance to discoloration. These films are also characterized by their superior water resistance. Use where flexibility, water resistance, and superior aging characteristics are required.
PermaPel® SA-6073
PermaPel® SA-6073 emulsion is a very firm, formaldehyde-free, carboxylated, styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsion. Films of this emulsion exhibit excellent resistance to discoloration and are characterized by their superior water repellency and adhesion to low energy surfaces. This polymer should be used where a firm film, water resistance, and superior aging characteristics are required.
PermaPel® GA-71
PermaPel® GA-71 emulsion is a very soft, non-tacky binder that is a self-crosslinking. carboxylated, styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsion. This polymer should be used where flexibility, water repellency, wash durability and superior aging characteristics are required. PermaPel® GA-71 also exhibits exceptional adhesion properties to low energy surfaces
PermaPel® GA-74
PermaPel® GA-74 is a MCTRON Technologies general coating binder that has been designed to incorporate our wash durable specialty monomer technology into a typical RC (rheology controlled) polymerization system.
PermaPel® GA-77
PermaPel® GA-77 is a MCTRON polymer that has been designed to incorporate our wash durable specialty monomer technology into a typical RC (rheology controlled) polymerization system with the addition of a non-formaldehyde generating crosslinking system. The RC technology has historically been used in Floor Polishes, Graphic Arts polymers and Overprint Varnishes. It has superior adhesion with hard-to-low energy substrates such as fiberglass, plastic film, foil and galvanized aluminum.
