Product Description
EPIGUM: halogen-free thermoplastic materials.
EPIGUM EXP/5065: is high-performance thermoplastic material designed to survive long-term exposure to hot oil. Ideal for automotive and industrial applications where there is exposure to heat and/or oil.

It has excellent resistance to many mineral and synthetic motor oils, transmission fluids, and greases.

It is suitable in bondable to polyamides and to polyolefins via overmoulding (insert and 2-shot).

Readily recycled both in process and post consumer.
