Europrene® SOL T 177 is a radial block copolymer obtained by anionic polymerization. The polymer is based on styrene and butadiene, where bound styrene is 50% weight. The polymer is extended with paraffinic oil (40 phr). A non-staining antioxidant system is added during the production process. Key Features: Europrene® SOL T 177 is a block copolymer with radial structure, providing excellent mechanical properties, high strength and elasticity in a wide range of formulated products. The oil addition allows good flow characteristics. Main Applications: Used as a high strength base in formulated compounds for footwear, the grade is specifically designed for high hardness compounds. Information provided by Polimeri Europa. Mechanical properties measured on ASTM D 4703 compression molded samples. Versalis is the Eni subsidiary containing the plastics and rubber businesses. |
