T2100 Hydrocarbon resin is aliphatic modified aromatic resin obtained from copolymerizing of C5 and C9 fraction that derived from the by-product of thermal cracking of naphtha. It is granular solid with the color of pale yellow. Its' major usage is binder for hot melt road marking and tackifier for hot melt adhesives, rubber compound. This resin shows outstanding affinity for pigments, superior process ability in the hot melt road marking application and good compatibility with base polymer, natural tackifier and good heat stability in hot melt adhesive application.
