The success of Exact plastomers derives from their outstanding attributes and performance characteristics:

• Unrivalled sealing and hot-tack properties even at low temperatures and for contaminated seal areas
• High clarity and very low gel content
• Flexibility comparable to flexible PVC, EPDM and other elastomers
• Toughness and impact strength down to low temperatures
• Excellent flex fatigue
• Efficient silane, peroxide or e-beam crosslinkability
• High filler acceptance and easy dispersion

These characteristics go together with ease of conversion through:

• Melting and flow properties which suit state-of-the-art blown or cast film lines, but also extrusion, moulding and even calendaring equipment
• Availability in the form of free flowing pellets facilitating on-line blending or continuous compounding

This has resulted in Exact plastomers adding value in a wide range of applications across many conversion techniques.

For many applications, Exact plastomers have been demonstrated to exceed the requirements. As a result they are used extensively as blend partner, offering the opportunity to tailor the performance to cost balance of finished articles.

Some telling examples of applications and end-uses are illustrated below.
