Elastage
Elastage is a new high-performance thermoplastic elastomer achieved using the plastic and rubber technologies that we have acquired over many years in the industry.
Elastage is a feature packed polymer alloy made from ester, halogen, and other polymers, and has properties that are very similar to rubber.
Being a thermoplastic makes Elastage ideal for recycling, along with making it a material that is both economical and environmentally friendly.
Grades of Elastage
●ES Series: High-performance thermoplastic elastomer
●ED Series: Thermoplastic vibration absorption
