Covinax 462 is a clear styrene-acrylic
copolymer for permanent pressure-sensitive applications that require high water
and blush resistance. Its high transparency makes it ideal for use in clear
film labels used on glass and plastic surfaces, including auto glass and bath
and shower products.
Covinax 462 also withstands
UV, weather and outside exposure without unsightly yellowing or water damage,
even over time. Lab testing performed with Colorimeter showed only a negligible
increasing in yellowing on Mylar and paper.
Convinax 462 offers peel
adhesion strength of 2.50 pounds (180° peel adhesion testing), strength of
1,251 minutes (178° shear adhesion test) and a loop tack of 2.10 pounds. The
high-shear properties equate to temperature in the performance range of 100 to
160° C.
Covinax 462 is water based
and coats in both direct coating and transfer processes, meeting individual
production demands at label manufacturing facilities. It also meets demands for
environmental friendliness.
