Escoat® P-20 Liquid is a non-silicone product especially produced and widely used for pressure sensitive labels, film and tapes. Its high degree of purity and quality offers superior properties and performance to critical users. Escoat® P-20 Liquid is used on films with adhesives based on natural rubber, SBR, SIS, acrylic, etc. primarily for obtaining release in self wound tapes where tight peel is mandatory. Escoat® P-20 Liquid is expected to give a peel strength 2-3 times the level expected from most silicone release agents. In addition, the non-stick properties of the resin in the Escoat® P-20 Liquid finds use in a wide range of applications outside the pressure sensitive area.

Characteristics: Being a 10% solids content, Escoat® P-20 Liquid can and will form a gel upon standing. The stiffness of the gel depends upon the temperature. The gel may be dissolved back into the solution with very moderate temperature increases. Due to unknown flammability hazards of the toluene every precaution should be taken to prevent the consequences of incorrect handling. To avoid inconvenience of gel formation during coating operation, levels of 1% solids or less are recommended provided suitable coating techniques are available to give uniform consistent coating
