Technical Document

Tall Oil Rosin (TOR) is a natural resin obtained as a fraction of Crude Tall Oil (CTO). It is primarily composed of rosin acids, and it possesses similar properties to gum rosin, including its characteristic tackiness and adhesive qualities. TOR is used in the production of adhesives, inks, and coatings, and it serves as a base material for further chemical modifications. It is typically available in solid form, often as flakes or blocks.

Tall Oil Rosin (TOR) strikes a balance between rigidity and flexibility, making it highly effective across various industrial formulations. Tall Oil Rosin is commonly used in:
 

Adhesives & Sealants:
Enhances tack, adhesion, and cohesion in formulations, making it a preferred tackifier in pressure-sensitive and hot-melt adhesives.

Coatings & Printing Inks:
Functions as a binder to improve film formation, gloss, and durability in solvent-based and waterborne coatings, as well as in printing ink formulations.

Rubber & Tire Manufacturing:
Acts as a processing aid and compatibilizer in rubber compounding, improving elasticity and filler dispersion for superior performance.

Paper Sizing:
Provides water resistance and improved surface finish in paper sizing applications, ensuring better ink holdout and print quality.

Emulsifiers & Resin Derivatives:
Its natural chemical composition serves as a basis for producing specialized rosin derivatives and emulsifiers used in a variety of composite and polymer systems.
