Friendly Version
KratonŽ G polymers based on
SEBS (styrene ethylene butylene styrene) may be added to
plastics and rubber-based products for applications including
handlebar grips, toothbrushes, and sports mouth guards and car
components. Strength and elasticity are improved and resistance
to oxidation provided. The compounds can be overmolded to the
surface of hard plastics components to improve grip or
appearance. Thermoplastic Elastomers combine the processing
advantages of plastics with the rubber-like performance of
Elastomers. Known as two-phase systems, these copolymers are
comprised of both hard (plastic) and soft (electrometric)
molecular regions, with each region contributing advantages and
limitations to the final material performance. Chemically, fully
cured thermo set rubber particles are dispersed throughout a
continuous thermoplastic matrix. KratonŽ has a broad
range of applications that ranges from clips and connectors to
insulators and grommets. Also used throughout the electronics,
appliance, furniture, automotive, and general hardware
industries. KratonŽ
is a soft rubber like material and is opaque off white in color.
