Nychem® 1572X64

Nychem® 1572X64 Nitrile-Butadiene Latex

Nychem 1572X64 is one of our Medium Nitrile Emulsion offerings. This line features a combination of very good oil, grease and hydrocarbon resistance, toughness/resilience, and tear and abrasion resistance. Toughness, abrasion resistance and chemical resistance can be further enhanced though either vulcanization or by adding external crosslinking agents such as melamines, epoxies, phenolics or metal complexes. Nychem® 1572X64 is a reactive noncarboxylated butadiene acrylonitrile polymer latex that is stabilized with synthetic surfactants so it exhibits superior mechanical stability. It has good compatibility with phenolics and good heat and light aging. Common applications include paper saturation, friction paper, paper coatings, car tar modification, asphalt modification, nonwoven binders, adhesives, RFL dip, textile coatings.

Application Group Application Description
Coatings Industrial Coatings Nychem® 1572x64 is a high solids heat reactive medium nitrile latex that can be used to enhance textile coating properties for water resistance, oil or solvent resistance, abrasion and wear resistance and flexibility. It is often used in conjunction with other compatible water based polymers.
Coatings Paper Friction Paper Nychem® 1572x64 is a high solid, heat reactive medium nitrile latex that can be used in paper friction products as a wet-end resin or saturation latex. It can impart thermal stability, wear resistance, oil and other fluid resistance properties in the finished paper product. It can also serve as a processing aid.
Coatings Paper Coating Nychem® 1572x64 is a high solids heat reactive medium nitrile latex that can be used as a paper coating to improve toughness, tear resistance, water resistance, solvent resistance and barrier properties.
Coatings Textile & Leather Textile Coatings Nychem® 1572x64 is a high solids heat reactive medium nitrile latex that can be used to increase abrasion, oil and water resistance, improve tear strength, flexibility, and puncture resistance.
