C5 hydrocarbon resin can be classified into four types, like C5 aliphatic hydrocarbon resin, C9 aromatics, DCPD, AMS and other products actually. The AMS is short for alpha methyl styrene. The constituent molecules are hydrocarbons, so they are also known HCR. The main purpose of the hydrocarbon resins is the thickening agent, so it is also referred to as the tackifier resin actually.
How much do you know about hydrocarbon resin? It is a generic term which refers to low molecular weight of the thermoplastic polymer and is obtained by polymerization thermal or catalytic pyrolysis gasoline distillate actually. It can change from viscous liquid to solid and the color can turn into dark brown from water white actually. Different kinds of modified products can be found easily, like modified C9 petroleum resin and hydrogenated petroleum resin.
After the separation and purification, the C5 components materials can produce a wide variety of petrochemicals products, specialty chemical products, fine chemical products and so forth. It can produce a range of high value-added chemical products and the countries all over the world show interests in its application and development. The associated condition of the C5 fraction separation and downstream derivative products is quite changeable and complex.
The C5 separation utilization rate is very high and the cyclopentadiene and piperylene isolated from the pyrolysis of C5 are used to produce a variety of petroleum resin. The existed annual production capacity of hydrocarbon resin has already reached about 170000 tons actually. Japan also has the high comprehensive utilization of C5 in the world. It is more important in the development of the fine chemicals of C5 series. It can be used for the production of synthesizing rubber, spices, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, pesticides and other fine chemicals and for separation of isoprene, and the subsequently uses.
The C5 derivative products include petroleum chemicals, specialty chemicals, fine chemicals and pharmaceutical chemicals, like SIS, curing agent and so forth. The C5 derivative products also include ring copolymers, a variety of flavors and fragrances, a variety of solvents and intermediates. C5 petroleum resin has many applications with the modern technology. For more detailed information about hydrocarbon resin, you can visit our website: www.shqilongchem.com
