SEPTON™
High-performance TPE
SEPTON™ is a series of styrenic thermoplastic elasto- mers used in a great number of TPE compounds and can be processed in various forms. The Hydrogenated Styren- ic Block Copolymers (HSBCs) consist of styrene-based hard blocks and a hydrogenated diene soft block. These styrenic TPEs cover a broad range of applications includ- ing compounds, polymer modification adhesives, flexible PVC substitutes and vibration damping products.
