Cray Valley Ricon® 154 High Vinyl Homopolymer of Butadiene
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Rubber or Thermoset Elastomer (TSE)

Material Notes: Description: Ricon® 154 is a low molecular weight polybutadiene resin with high vinyl functionality for high reactivity and exceptional hydrophobicity. This resin is suitable for use in peroxide- and sulfur-cured elastomers, where it acts as a non-extractable plasticizer and process aid. Its polymeric structure gives excellent compatibility in saturated and unsaturated elastomers, especially olefinic-based elastomers and thermoplastic resins. The resin is a Type II coagent, giving excellent crosslink densities without affecting the rate of cure.

Product Highlights / Performance Properties:

  • High reactivity
  • Non-extractable process aid
  • Electrical insulator
  • Excellent dielectric properties
  • Excellent hydrophobicity
  • Low temperature flexibility
  • Coagent for elastomer cure
  • Good hardness
  • Scorch protection
  • Good compression set
  • Abrasion resistance
  • High tear strength
Suggested Applications:
  • Coatings
  • Electronics
  • Encapsulants
  • Rubber
  • Wire and cable
  • Sealants
  • Thermoplastic modification
