FORTIFY™ Elastomer

Description

The new SABIC FORTIFY™ Poly Olefin Elastomer (POE) products are produced using Nexlene™ technology – a cutting edge technology with a combination of solution process and proprietary metallocene catalyst.
SABIC FORTIFY™ combines the properties of thermoplastics and elastomers. SABIC FORTIFY™ exhibits the advantages of rubber such as flexibility and low compression set combined with the process ease and recyclability of thermoplastics.

Benefits

• Good compatibility with other polyolefins
• Low crystallinity and low Tg, which provides high impact strength at low temperature in compounds
• Excellent physical properties (toughness, puncture resistance)
• Low modulus / high flexibility, comparable to traditional elastomers
• High puncture, tear and weld strength for TPO sheeting

Applications

Impact modification of PP compounds, footware, wire & cable, grafting.
