Compounds formulated with Vistalon™ EPDM offer processing and final product performance beyond the capabilities of natural and general purpose synthetic rubbers in a variety of applications.

Both metallocene- and Ziegler-Natta-based Vistalon EPDM provide added flexibility and improved processability in a wide range of compositions and molecular weights. These compounds offer ozone, heat and electrical resistance; weathering stability; a wide durometer range; and low-temperature flexibility.

Vistalon EPDM compounds are well suited for formulations requiring resistance to steam, temperature and water; and where oil resistance is not required.

Applications

Vistalon EPDM can be loaded with high levels of filler for cost-effective compounding, and is supplied in bales or pellets based on grade.
