- BM60 resin is a copolymer of methyl methacrylate and butyl methacrylate. It is hard and glossy with characteristics of fast drying and good pigment dispersion. It is compatible with plasticizer, NC, CAB, chlorinated and acetate resins.
- BM60 resin is soluble in ketones, esters, aromatics and chlorinated solvents. Because of its low viscosity, easy processing, good pigment dispersion, color stability, and exceptional weather and salt spray resistances.
- BM60 is commonly used in printing inks of PVC shrink films, metal coatings and other marine and container coatings.
