Elvacite® 2013
Elvacite® 2013 is a low–molecular weight, fast-dissolving methyl methacrylate/n-butyl methacrylate resin with a fast solvent release. It is used in lacquers, coatings, and inks.
Elvacite® 2013 is a methyl methacrylate/n-butyl methacrylate copolymer resin with low molecular weight in solid bead format. It dissolves quickly in toluene, esters, ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and glycol ethers. Elvacite® 2013 resin is often used as a film former in lacquers, where it provides a low solution viscosity and rapid solvent release. Films formed using this resin will be clear and durable films with excellent UV, temperature, and weathering resistance.
The monomer composition of Elvacite® 2013 makes it softer and more flexible than other acrylic resins, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Elvacite® 2013 is used in coil coatings when flexibility, durability, and fast cure are required. The fast solvent release of Elvacite® 2013 allows for coil coating formulations that cure quickly and have great flexibility plus durability to withstand use in outdoor applications.
Elvacite® 2013 may also be blended with other softer Elvacite® copolymer resins, such as Elvacite® 2014, to customize film properties. In marine environments or concrete applications, chlorinated rubber may be blended with an acrylic resin like Elvacite® 2013 to enhance gloss and improve resistance to yellowing.
Fast dissolving Low viscosity Fast solvent release
Problems Solved
Extended production time caused by resins that dissolve too slow Coatings made with other acrylic resins are not flexible enough Slow cure time of solvent-based coatings
