Synthetic hydrocarbon resins are thermoplastic polymers derived from petroleum-based feedstocks, primarily used as tackifiers in adhesives, sealants, and coatings. These resins enhance performance properties such as adhesion, cohesion, and thermal stability in various industrial applications. The product is categorized into C5, C9, and other types based on the hydrocarbon feedstock composition.
