ELASTO UK Dryflex® 8009-101 Flame Retardant TPE for Extrusion, Black
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE; Thermoplastic Elastomer, Melt-Processible Rubber

Material Notes: Vitaprene® thermoplastic elastomers combine the performance of most vulcanized rubber with the process properties of thermoplastics. Vitaprene® compounds permit sophisticated component design and thus will support a wide and flexible range of products.

Flame retardant compounds will extend the application areas where resistance to ignition and burning are important features, while their performance characteristics in processing and finished component operation are of the same standard a the Vitaprene® general-purpose grades.

The flame retardant compounds show an excellent resistance to a variety of polar fluids, such as water, aqueous systems and alcohols. However, in non-polar fluids, such as oil, resistance diminishes with increasing aromatic content. Weathering, including UV stability and ozone resistance is excellent.

Processing: The flame retardant grades of Vitaprene® can easily be processed using conventional thermoplastic equipment for extrusion as well as other fabricating methods. The thermoplastic characteristics result in faster processing times and complete scrap recycling. The flame retardant compounds do not require pre-drying prior to processing.
