Product Types

Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) offer designers and end-users numerous alternatives to natural rubber and thermosetting rubbers.

Thermoplastic vulcanizates, or TPV's, are a special class of TPE that contains a crosslinked rubber phase dispersed within a thermoplastic polymer phase.

HiSorb Oil Absorbing Polymers are unique and completely organic polymers which internally absorb oil, hydrocarbons and many liquid chemicals into its plastic structure. Hydrocarbons exist as oils, fragrances, specialty chemicals, fuels, and aromatic solvents.

Micropellets are described as having geometrical dimensions that are less than 2mm. The typical forms are either spherical, cylindrical or cubic, and the dimensions may be varied according to their use.

Antistatic Plastics are non-corrosive and can be supplied in the same base polymer with which they will be used.

Conductive Polymers and plastics are increasingly desired for a growing number of sophisticated end-uses. Most plastics are naturally non-conductive, hence their wide use as electrical insulators.

Polyester Resins comprise a new family of thermoplastic polyester alloys that exhibit a unique combination of high impact strength and high elongation properties.

Polyurethane Elastomers, or TPU's, are polymers with terrific resistance to abrasion and solvents. TPU's are made from a diisocyanate and polyol with either ester or ether backbone.

Additive Concentrates using twin-screw extruder technology Dyneon has the ability to provide consistent high quality color concentrates in an almost unlimited variety of colorants and base polymers.

Lubricants permit thermoplastic polymers to process (flow and fill) more easily in both molding and extrusion ("internal" lubricants).

Purge Polymers - Dyneon has developed a unique family of easy-to-use purge polymers that perform much better than the commonly used practice of simply purging barrels and screws with polyethylene.
