genated solvents and VOC-free
solvents.
For resin producers, in addition to
the traditional aromatic hydrocar-
bon solvents, Unipar provides the
Unisol R line of specialty aromatic
solvents, with different distillation
ranges. For manufacturers of adhe-
sives, the company provides several
raw materials, such as the EVA
petrochemical resin, the VAM mono-
mer, a range of rubbers, traditional
solvents (hexane, toluene, SPB) and
specialty solvents (cyclohexane and
TBAC).
The Unilene hydrocarbon resins,
traditionally used in the production
of paints and adhesives, have not
only increased in production this
year to meet all of the demand in
the marketplace, but also received a
new tablet format, which is subject
to less compactation when packed.
Unipar has stood out for developing
and supplying the market with sol-
vents blends from its Taylor-Made
Blends line, to which the company
applies all of its experience to deve-
lop unique products for customer-
specific needs.

easy to disperse for a better color
development, improves the compa-
tibility between pigment and base,
prevents foaming, improves sprea-
ding etc.
Viana Química will also introduce
the Alcalox MS alkaline additive,
which replaces ammonia and ami-
nes in water-based formulations,
while providing everyone, from
applicators to end consumers, with
the major advantage of having no
odor.

emulsion, and VAE dispersions, such
as Vinnapas 315, 320 and 400, whi-
ch are used in the adhesive industry,
Vinnapas 426 and 920, with carbo-
xylic functionality and outstanding
performance on demanding subs-
trates, Vinnapas 465 and 7200 for
fast curing, Vinnapas EP1400, for
replacing plasticized homopolymers,
and the Vinnol line of ethylene/vinyl
chloride copolymers.
The company will also introduce the

resins feature high transparency,
high gloss and outstanding finish
on the end product.
The Vinisol line consists of three
types of resins: Vinisol H, a vinyl
chloride and vinyl acetate copoly-
mer resin for application in vinyl
paints, silkscreen printing inks,
cardboard adhesives and blisters;
Vinisol OH, a vinyl chloride, vinyl
acetate and hydroxypropyl acryla-
te terpolymer for PVC or PU shoe
paints, printing inks for leather,
paper and plastics, primers for
wood and furniture, and plastic
auto part coatings; and Vinisol
COOH, a vinyl chloride, vinyl aceta-
te and monobutyl maleate terpoly-
mer for food blisters, packaging
printing inks, printing inks for
metallic parts, and adhesives for
clamps and cables.
