Foral™ AX-E fully hydrogenated rosin is a thermoplastic acid resin produced by hydrogenating rosin to a high degree. It is the lightest and most stable rosin commercially available from Eastman. Compared to Staybelite™ Resin-E partially hydrogenated rosin, Foral AX-E offers a lighter color and higher oxidation resistance. Long favored for its light color and superior oxidation resistance, it delivers better initial color and color retention, along with even greater oxidation stability.

I. Product Overview:
Foral™ AX-E fully hydrogenated rosin is a thermoplastic acid resin produced by hydrogenating rosin to a high degree. It is the lightest and most stable rosin commercially available from Eastman. Compared to Staybelite™ Resin-E partially hydrogenated rosin, Foral AX-E offers a lighter color and higher oxidation resistance. Long favored for its light color and superior oxidation resistance, it delivers better initial color and color retention, along with even greater oxidation stability.
These exceptional tackifiers and resin modifiers are particularly noteworthy in solvent-based adhesives and hot-melt coated coatings and adhesives. They are also used in UV-curable acrylic resins to enhance adhesion to low-surface-energy substrates.
