AQUASET™ 200 Thermosetting Resin
An acrylic solution polymer designed as a replacement for aminoplast resins such as melamine, phenol, and urea formaldehyde. This thermosetting polymer is recommended as a binder for industrial nonwovens such as fiberglass webs used in roofing, flooring, insulation, and filters. Other applications for AQUASET™ 200 include pressure laminates, as well as cellulosic, carbon, ceramic, and high-temperature polyester fibers.

At conventional use levels on fiberglass webs, the tensile properties, durability performance, and flame response characteristics of AQUASET™ 200 are comparable to those of industry standard aminoplast resins. This binder also has excellent runnability and is low foaming.
Another advantage of AQUASET™ 200 is that its cure profile allows it to be 'B' staged; i.e., it can be applied to the nonwoven web, dried but remain uncured, and subsequently cured by the fabricator of the final product. Even after being subjected to the high temperatures often encountered in use, this polymer retains its strength characteristics. In contrast to aminoplast resins, even at the high temperature needed for curing, this acrylic binder will impart very little color to the substrate. Also, unlike aminoplast resins, AQUASET™ 200 does not have to be stored under refrigeration and can be kept at room temperature without increasing instability.
The AQUASET™ 200 formulation process does not use, nor will it create, formaldehyde during normal processing. As a waterborne solution polymer it may reduce environmental impact, and volatile organic solvent emissions are significantly reduced.
