New terpolymer from Wacker Polymers

At EUROCOAT 2005 the Munich-based WACKER Group will be presenting a new generation of terpolymers based on vinyl acetate, ethylene and methyl methacrylate. Developed exclusively by WACKER POLYMERS, VINNAPAS® terpolymers combine the benefits of polyvinyl alcohol-stabilized vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAc/E) copolymers with the strengths of styrene acrylate or pure acrylate. Terpolymeric VINNAPAS® binders are highly efficient and offer excellent mechanical stability. They have a proven track record of enhancing the properties of cementitious dry-mix mortars.

Self-leveling flooring compounds modified with the new terpolymers are extremely wear resistant and display very good flow properties with all plasticizing admixtures. Additionally, the terpolymeric binders impart good tensile adhesive strength to cementitious tile adhesives, especially for critical heat aging.
