ARCO SMA Resins LEAD TO A WIDE RANGE OF PROPRIETARY PRODUCTS Researchers who rely on the use of resins in their product formulations have found a valuable ally in ARCO Chemical Company's line of SMA® Resins. These low molecular weight co-polymers of styrene and maleic anhydride were developed to fill a need for resins having low solution viscosities, high functionality, light color, water solubility and water insensitivity upon drying. Available in both anhydride and partial ester form, SMA® Resins lend themselves to a wide range of applications in proprietary products. They currently are utilized in rug shampoos as embrittling antiresoiling and soil release agents, in floor polishes, paints and in temporary coatings. New applications include their use as a high-temperature viscosity control agent for drilling mud formulations and
as dispersants for agricultural herbicides and printing inks. Even if you had investigated the use of SMA® Resins for a specific application, you should send for our special 8-page bulletin on these multifunctional resins. Call or write to us today.
