4. MAIN DESCRIPTION OF OUR THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS

COMPOUNDS

• Felprene • Chemical base: SBS• Properties: compounds have a low temperature

flexibility, good compression set, very good elasticity and a very broad range of hardness.

• Applications: Extrusion or injection, footwear, sole, soft-touch grip, seals, gaskets, also used as a PVC alternative.

• Not recommanded for outdoor applications.• Low price.

9. OUR REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC PRODUCT LINE

COMPOUNDS

1. Calcium Carbonate (CACO3) reinforced thermoplasticsThis grade is a basic product. It offers different choices: Filled with 20 to 50%, color control, stabilized UV and good mechanical properties. (see chart for PP/calcium carbonate)Ex.: outdoor furnitures, color match piece for ceramic tiles cement

2. Talc reinforced thermoplasticsYou will obtain higher mechanical and thermal properties. They are developed to meet requirements such as: stabilized UV resistance, color control, flex and impact resistance. Ex.: thermopumps, above ground pools

10. OUR REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC PRODUCT LINE

3. Glass Fiber reinforced thermoplasticsThese products have improved mechanical and thermal qualities and high injection molding capacity. Ex.: sport equipment, construction materials

4. Mica reinforced thermoplasticsBoth good mechanical properties and a surface finish looking like natural marble will be attained with these compounds. The color and mica size can also be chosen. Ex.: marble look
