What is ethylene propylene terpolymer?
Ethylene propylene diene terpolymer, or EPDM for short, is a durable material made to withstand the toughest conditions. It can handle high temperatures and abrasive chemicals. Even though it’s a tough material, that doesn’t mean it has to be tough to work with.
What is ethylene propylene diene monomer used for?
EPDM stands for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer, a synthetic rubber used in a range of applications. EPDM is used most commonly used in the automotive and construction industries for various seals due to its excellent resistance to environmental factors such as Ozone, UV and general weathering.
What is Keltan?
Keltan® is the brand for all ARLANXEO EPDM grades. Driven by sustainable innovation we developed Keltan® ECO, the world’s first commercial EPDM produced in Brazil from bio-based feedstock. The ethylene used in this process is derived from ethanol produced from sugarcane.
Is EPDM a terpolymer?
A terpolymer of ethylene, propylene and diene with the residual unsaturated portion of the diene in the side chain to provide for vulcanization. It is a thermosetting synthetic elastomer.
Is EPT same as EPDM?
EPDM is the acronym for ethylene-propylene-diene monomer. This type of EP is made up of 3 monomers. When you have 3 monomers it is called a terpolymer, thus EPT stands for ethylene-propylene-terpolymer and is the same thing as EPDM.
What is EPT material?
EPT is a synthetic rubber known for its superior ability to cope with various climatic conditions, and its resistance to ozone, heat and coldness. It also performs well as an electric insulator and is known for its chemical resistance.
