Ketjenflex 8

APPLICATIONS
Ketjenflex® 8 is a mixture of ortho and para N-ethyl-toluene sulfonamide. It is a plasticizer and adhesion promoter with high thermal stability. The product is highly polar and it readily plasticizes the more difficult resins, such as nylon and other polyamides, shellac, cellulose acetate, zein, and other protein materials. In addition, Ketjenflex® 8 is outstanding for improving compounds that are resistant to oils and various solvents.
Applications include:

• Polyvinyl acetate emulsion adhesives
• Nitrocellulose lacquers
• Cellulose acetate compositions
• Synthetic polyamides
• Epoxy adhesives
• Nail lacquers
• Printing inks
• Textile adhesive
