Compounds of the Diprene class are all based on EPDM. They are particularly suited for profiles extrusion and injection moulding.

Keeping their flexibility even when subjected to extreme temperatures, these compounds offer an excellent replacement solution to PVC and vulcanized rubber.

Diprene offer a very good value in terms of quality/price.
A non-polarized elastomer, it provides proven resistance to polarized solvents, acids, alkalies, water, and alcohol.

The Eprene class consists of products that can replace natural rubber and TPV (vulcanized thermoplastic), as well as similar products like Synprene, Santoprene, and Sarlink.

Products included in this class are compatible with polypropylene, and are used for over-molding and extrusion. Their resistance to UV rays makes them the ideal choice for outdoor applications that require a high resistance to oxidizing agents.

These products are mainly used for footwear, profiles, construction, toys, “soft touch” and commodities.

Eprene-class products are formulated from SEBS. Contrary to SBS, SEBS does not contain double bonds (by nature sensitive to oxidation), making it especially resistant to wear. It is therefore perfectly suited for harsh conditions involving heat, ultraviolet radiation, ozone, or oxydizing agents. Example: Kraton G

Seprene represents a class of special elastomers that meet the most specific requirements, for instance, resistance to chemicals, compression, or low temperatures, oil retention, etc. The elastomer base is a hydrogenated isoprene.

Due to its high compatibility with polyolefins (PP, PE), this compound is recommended for over-molding and coextrusion of these products. It also shows a very good adhesion to other types of plastic (nylon, ABS, TPU, PS).

These products are mainly used in construction, along with industrial footwear, automotive industry products, etc
