MAXIVE™, Gas-barrier adhesive resin

Maxive™ is a solvent-based, two-component thermosetting epoxy resin with superior gas-barrier properties. It can simultaneously provide both adhesive and gas-barrier properties with dry laminate or by application. It also features superior barrier properties against various types of gases, as well as excellent transparency, chemical resistance, and aroma-retaining properties.
