POLYOX™ Water-Soluble Resins are nonionic, high molecular weight water-soluble poly (ethylene oxide) polymers. Though they exhibit properties (binding, thickening, lubricity, adhesion and emollient performance) like other classes of water-soluble resins, a single POLYOX™ Resin can often contribute several important properties in a single formulation. They can also form association compounds with many other substances to achieve a wide variety of other valuable functions.

Benefits of using POLYOX™ In Industrial Applications
Available in Many Grades
 
Industry Application Recommended Grades Use Levels WT% Benefits
AGRICULTURE Seed Coatings WSR N-10, WSR N-750 100 Excellent film-forming characteristics
AGRICULTURE Seed Tape WSR N-10, WSR N-80, WSR N-750 100 Excellent film-forming characteristics and thermoplasticity. Doesn’t interfere with germination and growth of seeds after planting.
AGRICULTURE Water-soluble Packaging WSR N-10, WSR-205 2.0 Totally water soluble; packaging dissolves readily
AGRICULTURE Agricultural Drift Control WSR-301 0.05-0.2 Reduced carry over to other areas. Permits more efficient sprays directly on foliage.
AQUEOUS DRAG REDUCTION Firefighting Additives WSR-30, WSR-303, WSR Coagulant 5-100 Reduces turbulent frictional drag by as much as 80%
AQUEOUS DRAG REDUCTION Storm Sewers WSR-301, WSR-303 About 200 Reduces turbulent frictional drag by as much as 80%
CERAMICS Ceramic Forming Aid WSR-301 0.001-0.7 Lubricity aids mixing and extrusion. High binding efficiency. Burns off at low temperatures with little or no tendency to char.
COATINGS Paints and Coatings WSR N-750 3.0 Provides proper body and application properties. Reduces splattering and dripping.
COATINGS Paint and Varnish Removers WSR N-750 3.0 Good solubility in many organic solvents.
ELECTRONICS Batteries WSR N-750, WSR N-80 20-80 Efficient binding for battery electrodes. For ionically conducting polymer electrolytes with many inorganic salts
ELECTRONICS Wire, Cable and Optical Fibers WSR-301 0.1 Lubricity aids in assembly and installation operations
ELECTRONICS Flourescent Lamp Phosphor Binder WSR N-750, WSR N-3000 0.1-2.0, 4.0-6.0 Burn off at low temperatures with little or no tendency to char.
MINING Reducing Spontaneous Combustion of Coal WSR N-750 2.0 Excellent film formation
PAPER Tail-tie Paper Adhesives WSR N-750, WSR-205, WSR-301 3-7 High degree of wet-tack with dry residue that's non-tacky
PAPER Tissue and Toweling Adhesives WSR N-750, WSR-205, WSR N-3000 4-7 High degree of wet-tack with dry residue that's non-tacky
