Gum Rosin, also called colophony or Greek pitch, is a solid form of resin obtained from pines and some other plants, mostly conifers, produced by heating fresh liquid resin to vaporize the volatile liquid terpenecomponents. It is semi-transparent and varies in color from yellow to black. At room temperature rosin is brittle, but it melts at stove-top temperatures. It chiefly consists of different resin acids, especially abietic acid.Gum Rosin is distilled from natural resin raw material. Its chemical composition is C19H29COOH, the isomers of resin acid. It is widely used in paints, paper, soap, rubber, food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries with unique significant characteristicArticleGum rosin WW gradeResultColorPale YellowPassSoftening point(R&B)CD76.076.0Acid number(mg KOH/g) GB8146≥165.0166.0Non-Saponification content,%≤5.04.5Alcohol insoluble substance,% ≤0.0300.020Ash content, %0.0200.020
It is a kind of natural resin, mainly composed of various kinds of resin acids, it can be dissolved easily in many organic solvents, and has special chemical activity. So it is an important raw material for the production of paper, coatings, inks, rubber, soaps, electronic industrial products, food grade ester gum, rosin ester resins etc.Packing:
