Respin RLP is a natural thermoplastic resin derived from the Araucaria Angustifolia tree (also known as the Paraná Pine) by the alcoholic extraction of its special resinous parts. This is a reddish-brown product and is presented in flakes. Respin RLP is a raw material used to produce alcohol based flexographic inks, rendering good gloss, flexibility, prompt drying and adherence. The alcoholic solution of Respin RLP can be used in the impregnation of paper used in the production of fireworks to protect against moisture. It can also be used as a binder that holds the mixture together and helps produce a vivid color. Our product is used as a fixing and protection varnish for the layer of silver nitrate in the production of mirrors. Respin RLP is used to produce the capping cement that connects the glass bulb to the metal screw of the lamp, as a phenolic resin plasticizer. Respin RLP can be combined with the Indian shellac gum improving the quality of the varnish coating in relation to gloss and time of drying. It can also be used in combination with synthetic resins, mainly those produced from colophony, nitrocellulose and P.V.A. Respin RLP can be dissolved in ethanol to make a liquid varnish for wood finish.
