Dow Coatings Materials, a global business unit of The Dow Chemical Co., has developed Paraloid B-66 Thermoplastic Acrylic Resin in Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC).
Part of Dow’s Paraloid B-66 Acrylic Resin family, the new product forms clear solutions, which air-dry extremely fast to form hard, colorless films that offer excellent block resistance and color retention with ultra-low VOC rates. Paraloid B-66 DMC also exhibits moderate evaporation rates and should give similar solvent compatibility as Paraloid B-66 Resins in xylene and toluene.
