Wacker VAE Emulsion

Overview

Vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) is a combination of ethylene and vinyl acetate - two monomers possessing special properties as e.g. toughness (vinyl acetate) and flexibility (ethylene). Polymerization leads to VAE copolymers. VAE copolymers form the basis for engineering different properties in the individual end application.

About Wacker VAE Emulsion

WACKER started manufacturing polymer dispersions on an industrial scale in 1938 and has developed its integrated production process ever since. Starting from VAM (vinyl acetate monomer) as the major raw material, WACKER produces a variety of polymer dispersions including PVAc homopolymers and VAE (vinyl acetate-ethylene) co- and -terpolymers.

VAE dispersions are based on the polar monomer vinyl acetate and the hydrophobic monomer ethylene. They are produced by emulsion polymerization in an aqueous environment, without the addition of organic solvents. WACKER markets VAE dispersions under the trade names VINNAPAS® and ETONIS®.

Main Characteristics:

The interaction between vinyl acetate and ethylene monomers provides VAE dispersions with an outstanding range of technical performance benefits, along with environmental advantages, at an attractive cost-in-use ratio. For example, flexibility, adhesion and water resistance can be adjusted as needed by varying the monomer composition.

Main Benefits:

Very good adhesion to a wide range of substrates, including wood, paper, metal, plastics and concrete
Broad range of available glass transition temperatures (Tg)
The VAE formulation strategy eliminates the need to add plasticizers
Good film-forming properties at low temperatures and without additional coalescing agents
Excellent filler acceptance
Excellent cohesion
Heat and fire resistance over a wide range
All modern dispersions are produced without added APEOs

Main Application Areas:

Adhesives
Architectural coatings
Construction
Nonwovens
Carpets
Paper
Caulks and sealants
