Rubber processing: as tackifiers, compensation and adhesion promotion. Prevent delaminating and air bubbles during moulding. Used for tyre, wedge shaped belt and rubber tube manufacture.

Adhesive manufacturing: in melt and pressure sensitive adhesives, improving stickiness, elasticity and low temperature properties. They have high water resistance so are used in wallpaper making.

The Coating industry: for enhanced latex and solvent based coatings, improving glossiness, hardness, water/chemical resistance and adhesion. Coatings also have fast drying properties.

Printing Inks: the resins can be dissolved into hydrocarbon resins, have high temperature softening points and are very stable. They

have excellent rheology and aid stability of formulations.

Paper Industry: used as sizing agents, characterized by low air bubble and smoother paper surfaces. The paper's smoothness, hydrophobicity and therefore printability is improved.

Other applications: the resins are used in water treatment plants, as oil-field slurry additives, in artesian wells and in asphalt.
