Gum Rosin and Glycerol Ester Resins (Rosin Esters) are used to produce the adhesives that hold book pages together, reinforce the spine and increase durability in the bookbinding process.
Resin selection is important for bookbinding and can vary depending on several factors, including the type of book, number of pages, expected durability, cost and other characteristics.
Gum rosin provides adhesion and durability to adhesives. It can also be used to adjust viscosity and increase the holding power of adhesives. In bookbinding adhesives, gum rosin makes an important contribution to the structure and performance of the adhesive.
These esters interact compatibly with resins to enhance adhesive performance.
Glycerol Ester Resins are also used as components that improve the viscosity, tack and processability of adhesives and increase their durability. Glycerol esters can give adhesives better flexibility, bond strength and tack time.
