Water-thinned Adhesives
Synthetic Resins
Synthetic resins in Water-thinned Adhesives - Chemical research since the nineteenth century has developed synthetic materials from sources such as coal or petroleum. Some of these can be used in place of gums, resins, and glues obtained from plants and animals. The following synthetic resins can be obtained as water-thinned emulsions, and they are used as adhesives, binders for artists' tempera paints, fixatives, and protective coatings. [p. 37]
