SK Chemicals SARAN™ 560 CX Vapor Retarder Tape  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Adhesive

Material Notes: SARAN™ 560 CX Vapor Retarder Tape is composed of durable, flexible polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) coated with a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive designed for effective and long-lasting adhesion to a variety of substrates. Designed specifically for high vapor drive applications, SARAN 560 CX Tape conforms easily to fittings, elbows and joints, creating a tight, water-resistant seal and protecting these vulnerable areas from moisture intrusion and energy loss. A permeance rating of 0.01 perms meets or exceeds the strictest industry requirements for vapor retarders in cold service.

Applications: SARAN™ 560 CX Vapor Retarder Tape is used to wrap elbows and fittings in many high-moisture environments over a wide temperature range. The high performance tape is also used to seal butt joints and seams in the vapor retarder system. Typical applications for SARAN 560 CX Tape include:

  • Food and beverage facilities
  • Chilled water piping and HVAC systems
  • Transport pipelines
  • Chemical condensation tanks
  • Cold storage systems
  • Refrigerated transport
  • Pharmaceutical plants
  • Petrochemical plants
  • Cryogenic systems, including liquefied natural gas (LNG)

SK Global Chemical has purchased the SARAN® resin business from Dow.
