FOCUS ON: Celanese TufCORTM Emulsions Meeting the demands of the building products industry today requires emulsions specifically tailored to the performance needs of modern construction environments. TufCOR emulsions represent optimum adhesive solutions for joining an array of substrates that bond under a variety of environmental conditions. TufCOR emulsions are based on a range of chemistries including vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAE), polyvinyl acetate homopolymers and acrylic polymers for applications that include tape-joint compounds, caulks and sealants, mastics, cement bonding, liquid admixtures, and spackling compounds. Ask Celanese how TufCOR emulsions help you meet your most challenging formulation goals.

Comment of the Week:
"It is disgraceful that our elected officials will not use their election promises to work together for common solutions to problems for the good of their constituents. No corporation can survive without working out difficult agreements on a daily basis. There can be no success for anyone with no action, no proposals, no diplomacy, no commitment. I cannot respect anyone who refuses to find some common solutions."
