Tuftec™ P2000

In common with all grades in the Tuftec™ P series, Tuftec™ P2000 is a new polymer type, termed SBBS, produced by selective hydrogenation at appropriate locations on the molecular chains of styrenic thermoplastic elastomers (styrene/butadiene/styrene; SBS). As a result, it is inherently outstanding in thermal properties, and superior in processability and low-temperature properties to the structurally similar Tuftec™ H series of SEBS polymers. Tuftec™ P2000 is high in styrene content, and particularly effective as a modifier for styrenic, polyphenylene ether (PPE), and other polymers, and as a compatibilizer for styrenic and olefinic polymers. It is supplied in pellet form.

Applications:
Primarily for compatibilization between styrenic and olefinic polymers. Properties highly advantageous for food container applications.
