Escorez 569 is a tackifier.
Escorez 569 is a very light-colored aromatic modified cycloaliphatic hydrocarbon resin.
Escorez 569 is used in a variety of adhesive polymers including metallocene polyolefins, styrene isoprene styrene (SIS) block copolymer, (SBS) block copolymer and ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA).

Escorez 569 is listed in TSCA inventory.
Escorez 569 is characterized as petroleum hydrocarbon tackifiers.
There are two majorfamilies.
The first consist of major components that are C5-C6 olefins and diolefins (Escorez 1000 and 2000series).
These resins are catalytically polymerized.
The second family consists of major components thatare Polycyclodienes (C10-C12 Cyclodiene dimers plus Dicyclopentadiene with or without C8-C10 vinylaromatics (Escorez 5000 series resins).
These resins are thermally polymerized.
Physical / Chemical Properties
Escorez 569 is solid polymers that are stable and non-hazardous.
If heated above the flashpoint, they may burn or decompose to flammable hydrocarbons (fire situations).
Safety hazards at ambienttemperature are generally negligible, due to their high molecular weight, minimal toxicity and general inertness.
These products do not possess the physical hazards of being a combustible liquid, a compressed gas, explosive, flammable, an organic peroxide, an oxidizer, pyrophoric, unstable (reactive) or waterreactive.
The flash point is estimated to be >392ºF /200ºC.
