ExxonMobil Vistamaxx™ 3980FL Propylene-based Elastomer - High Purity, Low Gel
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Elastomer, TPE; Thermoplastic Olefinic Elastomer (TPO), Film Grade

Material Notes: Product Description: Vistamaxx 3980FL propylene-based elastomer is an olefinic elastomer primarily composed of isostatic propylene repeat units with random ethylene distribution. It is produced using ExxonMobil Chemical's EXXPOL™ Catalyst Technology. The "FL" designates this is a high purity grade with very low gel content, making it suitable for premium and performance film and molding applications.

Key Features:

  • Suitable for a wide range of cast and blown film, molding and various polymer modification and compounding applications.
  • Can be blended with PP, PE and other polyolefins for softening, stress-whitening and impact improvement.
  • Excellent adhesion to conventional and metallocene PP and PE for exceptional extrusion coating, lamination and tie-layer performance.
  • Very low seal initiation temperature combined with high seal strength when used as a sealing layer of co-extruded structures.
  • Good optical properties.
  • Good chemical resistance to aqueous systems and non-hydrocarbon based fluids.
  • May be used in food contact applications (with some restrictions).
  • EU and China RoHS compliant.
Applications:
  • Blown Film
  • Polymer Modification
  • Compounding
  • Cast Film
  • Molding
Uses:
  • Compounding
  • Film
  • Packaging
Availability: Africa & Middle East, Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, Latin America and South America
