Alcohol Resistant Acrylic Resin SA-532 for Automotive Refinishes & Varnishes

Alcohol resistance of acrylic resins refers to their ability to withstand exposure to alcohol-based solvents such as ethanol, isopropanol, and methanol without compromising key film properties such as gloss, hardness, adhesion, or clarity. This alcohol resistance stems from the resin's dense molecular structure, strong intermolecular bonding, and low-polarity functional groups, which effectively reduce solvent penetration and swelling. Acrylic resins with high glass transition temperatures (Tg) and optimized polymer designs generally exhibit enhanced alcohol resistance, making them ideal for coatings, inks, and topcoats that require frequent cleaning or contact with alcohol, such as appliance paints, automotive refinishes, and plastic coatings. Strong alcohol resistance ensures long-term durability, chemical stability, and surface aesthetics, even under harsh operating conditions.

Product Description

  SA-532 is a high tg (125℃) solid acrylic resin primarily composed of an MMA copolymer. This highly alcohol resistant acrylic resin has been carefully formulated to withstand frequent contact with ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and other alcohol-based solvents without loss of gloss, hardness, abrasion resistance, or adhesion. SA-532’s excellent durability, scratch resistance, and surface protection make it ideal for applications with frequent contact with cleaning, disinfection, or solvents. Its exceptional high gloss, hardness, and abrasion resistance make it widely used in appliance paints, automotive refinishes, plastic coatings, varnishes, and thermal transfer inks. SA-532 alcohol resistant acrylic resin combines chemical durability with long-term aesthetic stability, ensuring that coatings and inks maintain their performance and appearance even under harsh operating conditions.
