Exact™ plastomers improve tensile strength and elongation in consumer wire and cable
Exact plastomers are an excellent blend partner for polyethylene and ethylene vinyl acetate in flexible, halogen-free formulations.
When used in combination with other polymers, Exact plastomers can:
- Increase flexibility in cross-linked polyethylene compounds
- Provide long-term electrical insulation
Other elastomeric solutions
Vistamaxx™ propylene-based elastomers partner well in polyolefin blends and are a good option for highly flexible electrical applications with halogen-free requirements. Santoprene™ thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) combine the performance properties of thermoset rubber with the processing ease of plastic and offer compliance with a range of electrical industry standards.
