Poly Saccharide Resin (Poly Resin)
Poly Saccharide Resin, also known as Poly Resin, is a high-performance natural polymer known for its biodegradability, excellent film-forming ability, and superior adhesion. It is widely used in coatings, adhesives, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals.
Poly Resin is “Next Generation” in Poly Saccharide Resin Chemistry.
It’s a long-chain polymeric carbohydrate and coactive resin, emulsifying and stabilizing water
molecules in alkyd resin via hydrogen bonding.
100% Bio-based, Eco-Friendly, and Non-Carcinogenic
Compatibility:
- Long alkyd chain
- Medium alkyd chain
- Short alkyd chain (fast dry, chain stop alkyd and short coconut)
Poly Resin and Emulsifier
Poly Resin: Stabilizes water in alkyd chains via hydrogen bonds for better performance and drying.
Emulsifier: Suspends water in solvent systems but leads to instability and evaporation issues.
| Features | Poly Saccharide Resin (Poly Resin) | Emulsifier |

| Stability | ++ | + |
| Gloss | ++ | + |
| Yellowing | + | + |
| Drying time | ++ | + |
| Wettability | ++ | – |
| Water Addition | ++ | + |
Lower VOC – Reduced petroleum solvent usage.
Film Hardness – Improves wettability & workability.
Drying – Shortens drying time via drier reduction.
Adhesion – Superior surface adhesion.
Gloss – Water/alkyd phase control ensures retained gloss.
Rheological Properties – Better sag control, levelling.
Useability – Compatible with most alkyd resins.
Cost Efficient – Enables high % water use replacing alkyd/fillers.
Poly Resin supports superior water incorporation in solvent/oil-based formulations for enhanced performance.
Added advantage includes:
- Reduced Yellowing
- Improved and consistent stability
- No gassing issue if properly formulated
- Low foaming emulsifier that restricts corrosion
Into the Oil/Solvent Based System
Direct Water Addition (DWA): Can be added directly in the bulk production batch followed by soft water to reduce the production processing time.
