Dynasol Dynasol is one of the leading global suppliers of butadiene-styrene solution elastomers and one of the top manufacturers in the world of SEBS (styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene), SBS (styrene -butadiene-styrene) and SSBR (solution-based styrene -butadiene rubber). Being the result of a joint-venture of the synthetic rubber divisions of Repsol YPF and KUO (formerly DESC), our market position derives from their many years of know-how, from the synergy between Dynasol s portfolio and those of our two mother corporations, experts in products such as EVA, waxes and oils, and from our commitment to the constant development of environmentally friendly products. Dynasol s trade brands, Calprene and Solprene, are wellknown and established in the styrene and butadiene elastomeric copolymers world and are, therefore, recognised as a guarantee of quality. We provide dynamic solutions to meet your expectations Our global commercial and distribution network, our two manufacturing sites, one located in Spain and the other in Mexico, together with our two state-of-the-art pilot plants, our R&D centres and our awareness of customer and market needs allow us to offer our clients high quality products and service. This means we provide dynamic solutions as a key component for successful cooperation. Along these lines, Dynasol seeks alliances with customers to jointly initiate and develop advanced solutions to meet customers needs and specific market requirements, providing them with a wide range of high quality products for the adhesives & sealants industry.
A wide range of benefits With our SBC (styrene block copolymers) technology, adhesives and sealants manufacturers can benefit from high quality performance and tailor-made properties to match a wide range of applications. Building and construction Weatherability Ease-of-application Durability Temperature and water resistance Transportation High mechanical performance Long-term ageing
Tapes and labels High temperature resistance High shear; low or high peel Packaging hot melt High adhesion on low and high surface energy substrates Fast setting Clean processability
An open array of applications Building and construction Our adhesives and sealants for the building and construction industry benefit from Dynasol s expertise as leader in several civil engineering applications such as pavement, crack filler, bitumen modification, road sealant, among others, by obtaining excellent weatherability, ease-of-application, durability and temperature and water resistance properties. All of which are strategic for choosing SBC adhesives and sealants in the construction industry. Transportation Due to their durability, outdoor performance and their capacity to adhere to both low and high surface energy substrates, SBC-based adhesives and sealants successfully meet the demanding needs of all transportation sectors such as automobiles, aircraft, spacecraft and shipbuilding. Tapes and labels SBC-based adhesives meet the requirements of label and tape applications providing versatile pressure sensitive properties. They are easy to apply, lightweight, and can be die cut to fit the smallest and most unusual shapes. Packaging Hot Melt SBC-based adhesives are able to fulfil every market characteristic of the high demanding industries, thus influencing the packaging adhesive demand. SBCs in hot melts find growing use in applications such as case sealing, lamination and labelling due to the expanding use of modified paper and board as well as polar surfaces in packaging materials.
A broad product range SEBS These polymers are styrenic block copolymer hydrogenates, with a styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS) structure. In general, the saturated block copolymers SEBS are used where long term thermo and photo-oxidative stability is critical or whenever compatibility with other low polarity adhesive ingredients is required. SEBS polymers, which have saturated rubber blocks, are the materials of choice for adhesives that require long term stability in the melt state. SBS These polymers are styrenic block copolymers with unsaturated polybutadiene midblock with a styrenebutadiene-styrene (SBS) structure. Dynasol SBS block copolymers are primarily employed where low cost or improved adhesive-cohesive properties are required for adhesive formulation. An advantage of SBC block copolymers is their narrow molecular weight distribution, providing a faster solution process, which means time and money savings. SB/SSBR SBC block copolymers are characterized by a well controlled linear structure with a very narrow molecular weight distribution, high purity and a very clear colour. These polymers are widely used in adhesive formulations for an extensive amount of applications such as tapes and labels, construction (including asphalt modification pavement), sealants and transportation. Furthermore, these copolymers offer improved die-cutting behaviour.
