Product Description
The VA2019A is a copolymer of Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) with medium vinyl-acetate content. VA2019A is an easy processing product with high compatibility with others thermoplastic and elastomeric resins, and mineral loads. Its elasticity is higher than the LDPE of the same MI, excellent environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR) and low temperature brittleness. The compounds produced with VA2019A will be lightness, good resistance to deformation and high retention of color.
