Product Description
AFFINITY™ VP 8770G1 Polyolefin Plastomer is a Polyolefin Plastomer (POP) produced using INSITE™ Technology.

AFFINITY VP 8770G1 Polyolefin Plastomer has exceptionally high clarity and flexibility. It has been designed for calendering applications but is also suitable for thicker and profiles extrusion.

The compatibility with other polyolefins and fillers is excellent.

Applications:
  • Calendered or pressed flooring with moderate filler levels.
  • Calendered film and sheet.
  • Profile extrusion

Complies with:
  • AFFINITY™ SQ 1503 UE Polyolefin Plastomer is a Polyolefin Plastomer (POP) produced using INSITE™ Technology.

AFFINITY SQ 1503 UE Polyolefin Plastomer is specifically designed for rotomoulding applications. It offers easy demoulding combined with flexibility and elastic recovery normally associated with polar copolymers such as EBA, EVA and plasticised PVC.

Processing and Stabilisation: The inherently stable POP is further stabilised against heat and UV-radiation. The result is a wide processing latitude, good colour retention and long life expectancy.

Availability: AFFINITY SQ 1503 UE Polyolefin Plastomer is available as free flowing powder ground to 500 micron.

Applications:

Buoys
Fenders
Road furniture

Complies with:
  • EU, No 10/2011
  • U.S. FDA FCN 424
