Adhesives
Sustainable and Superior Products
Our customized latex binder portfolio designed for adhesive applications delivers best in class performance in properties such as peel and tack, shear, adhesion, cohesion, heat aging resistance, and wet strength. Consistent quality and stringent regulatory compliance for laminates, caulks and sealants, packaging and labels and tapes applications mean customers can rely on and trust in Trinseo solutions.
Building Materials
Innovative Solutions to Rely On
Our customized polymers impart key properties, such as mechanical strength, elongation, adhesion, water resistance, vapor permeability and chemical resistance. Trinseo products deliver the highest performance while meeting industry-standards (e.g., ANSI, ASTM, or ETAG) and the ever-increasing environmental requirements such as lowering VOC emissions to comply with EMICODE® standards.
Coatings
Durable and Environmentally Compliant
Trinseo latex binders for coatings applications deliver on key performance characteristics like flexibility/crack resistance, sustainable and formaldehyde-free formulations, durability, UV stability, high-quality color value, low dirt pick-up resistance, and excellent adhesion to many substrates – while remaining compliant with current and future material regulations.
Fiber Bonding
Strong, Sustainable, and Economical
Trinseo latex binders deliver enhanced performance in fiber bonding applications such as glass fiber mesh and veils, roofing membrane reinforcements, abrasives, footwear, filtration, and others. Our product portfolio offers formaldehyde-free variations with a broad range of stiffness and softness attributes, ensuring high alkaline and heat resistance, outstanding processability, and consistency.
Infrastructure
Best in Class Consistency and Reliability
Trinseo solutions for infrastructure applications like latex modified concrete (LMC) and recreational and road surfaces offer the consistency and reliability customers require. Trinseo combines its long-standing industry experience, state-of-the-art automated plants, and sophisticated quality control to deliver high-quality products and peace of mind.
Specialties
Solutions for Batteries, Oil & Gas, and Tire Cord
Latex binder solutions from Trinseo for highly specialized applications such as lithium-ion batteries, tire cord, and oil and gas well cementing allow for the optimum performance and meet critical requirements.
Designing Sustainable Latex Binders for Textiles
In the past, the world of Latex Binders for carpet and flooring applications orbited mostly around the production, sales, and specification of carpets, machinery, yarns, or backings. But in recent years, new trends and developments have changed the industry. Sustainability is the most important topic — including a thought-through waste management, eco labeling and lifecycle analysis, on top of technological and economic concerns. Trinseo has an ongoing commitment to designing lifecycle sustainability into Latex Binders.
Broad Portfolio for Paper and Board Applications
Trinseo spearheaded the development of latex binders for paper and board over 60 years ago – and has been helping customers with cutting-edge technology ever since. We provide high-performance latex coatings for board, graphical paper, and specialty paper, as well as liquid packaging board to customers all over the world. Our state-of-the-art research and development centers and application laboratories ensure that we, along with our customers, stay close to innovation.
