Butyl polymers' unique combination of barrier properties, resistance to ozone,
heat and chemical resistance as well as flex and tear and abrasion resistance,
make them ideal for use in many industrial applications.
Halobutyl polymers as well as
Exxpro specialty elastomers are being used in conveyor belts requiring
heat and chemical resistance. These compounds are particularly well suited
for belts conveying hot material or those that pass through ovens or other
high temperature zones.
Halobutyl polymers are also used in tank linings. The inherent resistance of
halobutyl polymers toward contact with water and normal concentrations of
acids and bases is reinforced with the cure versatility of bromobutyl. The low
unsaturation, low permeability and low polarity of butyl polymers also impart
very good resistance to a wide variety of chemicals.
Condenser packing for electrical appliances is an excellent application
utilizing the unique characteristics of low permeability (sealability of
electrolyte of chemical condenser) and chemical inertness (no affect to and
from electrolyte) associated with
EXXON Butyl.
The polyisobutylene backbone of butyl imparts superior barrier properties,
minimizing the transmission of air and water vapor, and makes this polymer
more resistance to heat and mechanical work compared to most rubbers. EXXON
Butyl has very good dielectric properties and is an excellent electrical
insulator. It can be compounded for both conventional and heat resistant
applications.
The following ExxonMobil products can be used in Industrial applications:
EXXON Butyl
EXXOIN Bromobutyl
EXXON Chlorobutyl
Exxpro specialty elastomers
