Vistamaxx™ specialty elastomers
Next-generation solutions. Ready today.

APPLICATIONS
TPO Modification

Improve the toughness of your PP-ethylene elastomer blends by incorporating very low amounts of Vistamaxx specialty elastomers as a compatibilizer.  Target applications are automotive TPOs for bumper fascia, wheel covers, side pillars, hard auto interior panels, and rigid sheeting.
 
Incorporating Vistamaxx specialty elastomers as a major component in PP-based compounds yields soft, flexible, durable surfaces for automotive skins, commercial roofing membranes, and consumer applications. The potential for soft applications is limited only by your imagination.
 
Vistamaxx specialty elastomers provide excellent adhesion to conventional or metallocene PP and PE, enhancing product design and flexibility. For example, bonding all forms of common homo-PP or RCP is attainable below the melting point of these polymers. This makes bonding to nonwovens, films, fibers or molded parts easy with Vistamaxx specialty elastomers.
 
With Vistamaxx specialty elastomers as the primary component, clear and flexible compounds are obtainable for blow molded or injection molded applications ranging from shoes and mouth guards to grips and a wide range of consumer products. All of this is possible with tailorable softness and colorability with the processing convenience of a polyolefin.
 
Benefits of using Vistamaxx specialty elastomers in your compounds:
  • Create soft TPO compounds for use as skins or membranes without the addition of plasticizers
  • Attain excellent adhesion to conventional or metallocene PP
  • Maintain polyolefin processability
  • Create clear and flexible compounds
