Engineered Polymer Solutions launched EPS 2157, a resin for protective films for appliances, doors and glass, as well as any applications where protective masking is required. 
 
EPS 2157 is an all-acrylic polymer emulsion for use in removable, pressure-sensitive adhesive applications. 
 
This product, ideal for film and tape market segments, exhibits moderate peel and tack with high-shear values. EPS 2157 distinguishes itself from other resins in this space, offering a “soft” peel as compared to other products with equivalent peel and tack that have a harder “zip-like” peel.
 
As the demand for protective films for surfaces grows, customers have expressed a need for adhesives that are easy to remove smoothly. EPS 2157 satisfies this demand, enabling adhesives that have a soft-feel peel.
 
“The soft peel attribute differentiates this resin from other products that may have a similar peel adhesion but a harder zip-like feel,”  said Dr. Robert Sandoval, R&D technical manager for EPS. “End-users can easily remove protective films that use EPS 2157 due to its moderate peel adhesion, but the resin still offers enough adhesion and high-shear strength to prevent films from unintentionally becoming removed during transport and installation of a part. In addition, protective films that have removable adhesives made from EPS 2157 leave no residue or adhesive transfer after peeling.”
