VESTOPLAST® grades are amorphous poly-alpha-olefins, produced with three monomers - ethylene, propylene and butene-1. It is mainly used as a raw material for hot melt adhesives that are applied within several industries like hygiene, automotive, packaging and woodworking.
All VESTOPLAST® grades are produced to specification in a continuous Ziegler low-pressure polymerization process. We design polymers with optimum and balanced values for ad- and cohesion, soft- and hardness, open and setting times.
Our focus is producing easy to process polymers that offer as well the right melt viscosity, excellent stability and high thermal stability under load.
