New soft, temperature resistant, and strong SIS grade from Kraton

Kraton announced the addition of Kraton D1183 BT, a new SIS grade. As main features of the material the company mentioned softness, ease-in-processing, and high temperature resistance.

"Kraton D1183 BT is suitable for use in many adhesive applications including thermal printing labels, high temperature resistant labels, elastic labels and diaper tabs. It is an excellent choice for adhesives in hygiene applications and its shear strength is particularly good at 37 °C," said Mark Siebert, Vice President of Adhesives, Sealants and Coatings. "Moreover, it offers economically attractive adhesive formulations, and gives formulators the ability to dilute it further to obtain equivalent performance levels of competing products, which can result in cost-savings. It can also achieve significantly higher cohesive strength and higher temperature resistance without the use of expensive endblock resins. Therefore, Kraton D1183 BT is not only economically attractive, but also substantially stronger and offers a wider formulating space," he said.
