Products in Carpet & Upholstery: Acrylics & Acrylates

Acronal® V 278 is an aqueous dispersion designed for the production of high-quality sealants with a broad adhesion range. Formulated based on an acrylic ester copolymer that includes acrylonitrile, this liquid dispersion is manufactured without the use of APEO. Primarily utilized as a binder in the manufacturing of dispersion-based sealants, products formulated with Acronal® V 278 stand out for their exceptional resilience and flexibility, especially at low temperatures. This versatile dispersion extends its application to the manufacturing of adhesives for floor and wall coverings, such as carpets and PVC. These adhesives, featuring a high initial tack, establish a remarkably heat-resistant bond.

Acronal® A 420 S is a plasticizer-free dispersion composed of thermally crosslinkable copolymers derived from acrylic acid esters. This dispersion possesses self-crosslinking properties and finds application in self-adhesive nonwovens, including carriers based on PET and glass fibers, filter nonwovens, materials for hygiene and medical purposes, as well as interlinings and high-loft waddings. It exists in liquid form with a faint odor in its dispersion.

Acronal® 81 D is an aqueous dispersion composed of an acrylic ester copolymer produced with acrylonitrile. This liquid polymer dispersion is well-suited for formulating one-sided adhesives and serves as a crucial component in impregnating expandable joint sealing tapes. Specifically designed for the manufacturing of adhesives applied to a single surface during carpet installation, Acronal® 81 D's pressure-sensitive nature also makes it an effective binder for flooring adhesives. With its versatile properties, Acronal® 81 D stands out as a reliable choice for diverse applications, offering efficient adhesion for both carpet and flooring installations.

DeCAL 1015 is an acrylic copolymer emulsion in water. The polymer provides effective rheology modification, particularly suitable for the application of machine-coated adhesives and latex compounds. DeCAL 1015 offers easy viscosity control, enhanced stability with filled systems, and excellent machine runnability properties.

Capitol Adhesives PS100 Mid Grade Pressure Sensitive Adhesive is a very versatile, pressure-sensitive, acrylic-based adhesive designed for the installation of carpet tiles, commercial carpet cushions and solid vinyl tiles. This product is protected by AMP Guard®, an anti-microbial protection system that inhibits the growth of mold, mildew and odor causing bacteria in both wet and dry adhesive.
