Plasticizers and Processing Aids

    SpectraSyn Polymer Modifiers


SpectraSyn is a specialty plasticizer for technical applications requiring a wide range of service temperature and improved mechanical properties. The unique chemistry of SpectraSyn may enable formulators to elevate product performance and extend the product service life of EPDM and polyolefin elastomer compounds. Key benefits include improved processing, higher crosslink density, lower compression and tension set, increased permanence and enhanced low- and high- temperature performance. Compound viscosity reduction efficiency is about 130%, which translates to about 70% replacement parts of SpectraSyn vs. Sunpar 2280 for a similar Mooney. The Pour Points for the SpectraSyn grades range from -66°C to -27°C, which is significantly lower than the -9°C for Sunpar 2280.
