ADCOTE™ 3840D is solution based polyester resin that can be used as a primer, heat seal adhesive, or binding resin. It is highly UV and temperature stable.
ADCOTE™ 3840D is a solution of polyester resin in 1,3-Dioxolane. It can be applied to most any surface at 2.0-6.0 lbs / ream coating weight and provides excellent adhesion particularly to metal and plastic making it an excellent primer for difficult to bond surfaces. ADCOTE™ 3840D can also be used as a base for coating, ink, and adhesive formulations. It is highly economical and shows excellent compatibility and acceptance to pigments and fillers. In addition, ADCOTE™ 3840D is recommended for outdoor and general industrial applications die to its outstanding UV and temperature stability.
