TERGUM 120 is a stabilized pentaerythritol esterified rosin in flakes.
TERGUM 120 is used as tackifier in water based, solvent and hot-melt adhesive formulations. It is widely compatible with most elastomers, waxes, paraffin-waxes and resins used in the adhesive industry. Its good oxidation resistance and well balanced composition are of special value when compounded with EVA, SBS and SIS polymers to obtain hot melts with outstanding heat stability.
