Being hydrogenated, it has marked resistance to aging. To assure minimum odor of products in which it is used, it is given a special steam-sparging treatment. FORALYN 5020-F Ester of Hydrogenated Rosin is used as a resinous plasticizer or tackifier in finished products such as adhesives, inks and lacquers. In perfumes, it functions as a fixative. High refractive index, low odor, resinous nature; low vapor pressure and high boiling point; stability to alkalies and oxidation; excellent pigment-wetting properties; wide-range solubility and compatibility. Compatible at all ratios, or in limited but practically useful proportions, with nitrocellulose; ethylcellulose; chlorinated rubber; polyvinyl chloride; vinyl acetate-chloride copolymers; polyvinyl ethers; such water-soluble film-formers as casein and starch; natural and synthetic resins and rubber; asphalt; and waxes. Incompatible with cellulose acetate and polyvinyl acetate. Soluble in esters, ketones, alcohols, ethers, coal tar, petroleum hydrocarbons, and vegetable and mineral oils. Insoluble in water. inks and printing inks Methyl ester of hydrogenated rosin. Used as a resinous plasticizer in inks and lacquers. Offers high refractive index, low odor, low vapor pressure and high boiling point, stability to alkalies and oxidation, very good pigment-wetting properties and wide-range solubility and compatibility.
