| Product description: VINNAPAS® CA 5700 is an aqueous polymer dispersion based on vinyl acetate and ethylene. It is particularly suited in carpet binder applications where a firm hand is required. The dispersion combines very high solids content with a low viscosity — a combination that permits the addition of very high filler loadings, resulting in adhesive formulations with high solid contents of 80 percent or even greater. VINNAPAS® CA 5700 is not produced with any added organic solvents, plasticizers or formaldehyde donors. Properties: VINNAPAS® CA 5700 may be used in applications where high filler loadings of calcium carbonate, aluminum trihydrate (ATH) or other fillers are required. The stabilization allows the dispersion to be compatible with acrylic dispersions and many styrenebutadiene latices. Application: General-VINNAPAS® CA 5700 can be used in the precoat and secondary coatings that are applied in the production of tufted carpet backings. It can also be used in the production of woven carpets where a firmer hand is required. VINNAPAS® CA 5700 offers high adhesion strength, and good flexibility. Special-VINNAPAS® CA 5700 can be applied by a number of different application methods including foaming (direct coating), pan coating, saturation and spraying. VINNAPAS® CA 5700 performs well on various fiber types including polypropylene, polyamide, cellulose, and polyester. Information provided by Wacker Chemie AG. |
