Super elastomer replaces silicone
7 Apr 2000
Speciality plastics producer AlphaGary has introduced new thermoplastic elastomers, which it claims are a cost-effective replacement for silicone. Dubbed Evoprene Super G, the material is styrene-based and is suitable for moulding and extrusion applications. The material can be processed using standard machinery for thermoplastics and is said to have good temperature resistance and tensile strength.
