POLYVEST® EP MA 100 is a maleic anhydride adduct of a low molecular weight 1,4-cis polybutadiene which has succinic anhydride groups randomly distributed along the polymer chains. This makes the originally apolar polybutadiene more polar and accessible for various chemical reactions.
Typical Applications
In this form POLYVEST® EP MA 100 is used in the following areas of application:
- adhesive and sealant compositions
- electrical insulations and potting compounds (2-pack systems)
- polymeric chalk activator in EPDM-compounds
- modifier in carbon black filled EPDM-compounds
- modifier in silica filled rubber compounds
- modifier in rubber compounds for car tires
