Strength in Fibers

Fibers are an integral part of our vehicles and homes, apparel and household goods. Hexion supplies the materials necessary for our industry partners to make the filtration systems, insulation, fabrics, moldings and felts that quiet our world, carry a load, protect our skin and reduce vibration.


Hexion’s large variety of safe and effective adhesive, resin and wax formulations allow textiles and nonwoven materials to be manufactured at the highest level of quality. We supply materials that can provide color fastness, strength, durability, water and abrasion resistance, superior adhesion, softness, lubricity, rigidity or moldability, depending on customers’ needs.


We constantly evaluate processes, inspect results and suggest new approaches to your toughest problems, such as: 

  • Powdered resins that achieve high reactivity without additives that might affect emissions
  • Anti-dust, anti-foam and release agent combinations that solve processing problems
  • New waterborne resin technology that enhances epoxy suitability for nonwoven binders, fiber finishes, and chemical-resistant textiles and adhesion promoters for industrial fabrics
