Use Vistamaxx™ elastomers to achieve high filler loading capability and outstanding flexibility in carpet tile backing systems
Vistamaxx™ propylene-based elastomers provide high filler loading capability with outstanding flexibility in carpet tile backing systems. Using Vistamaxx in these compounds creates the potential to meet specifications with a thermoplastic solution.
Potential benefits
- High filler loading (up to 75% calcium carbonate) with significantly more flexibility than other polymers without oil
- Easy processing and good dispersion
- Lightweight alternative to PVC
- Recyclability
Typical concentrations of Vistamaxx propylene-based elastomers are between 25-30% for these and similar applications.
