Cytec Engineered Materials Relocates its Pressure Sensitive Adhesives Lab

Cytec Engineered Materials, a business unit of Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT), announces the relocation of its pressure sensitive adhesives (PSA) technical service and development laboratory to its Fengxian, China manufacturing site.

The laboratory provides testing and development services to Cytec’s PSA customers in the Asia Pacific region.

Relocation and investment in the PSA laboratory demonstrates Cytec’s commitment to the Asia Pacific region which is moving rapidly to adopt new PSA technologies. In June of this year Cytec held a comprehensive seminar and demonstration of its UV-curable Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) in Shanghai, China that was attended by over 130 customers from the region. These customers are using PSA products increasingly in a wide range of application including industrial tapes, PVC and polyurethane foam tapes, removable labels, and clear-on-clear labels.

Laboratory capabilities include mechanical and environmental testing of both emulsion, and solvent PSA products including the UV-curable PSA products. The laboratory also includes facilities for formulation development and product sampling. This will allow Cytec to tailor pressure sensitive adhesive products to customers’ specific application needs. As part of Cytec’s laboratory network, the Fengxian lab is tied in to PSA labs in Europe and North America allowing sharing of best practices for testing, safety and formulation. As a result, PSA customers in the Asia Pacific region can expect more efficient and cost-effective laboratory services.
