POE (Polyolefin Elastomer)

Description

POE (Polyolefin Elastomer) is a type of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) that combines the properties of both elastomers and polyolefins. It is characterized by its excellent flexibility, low-density properties, and high resistance to heat, UV radiation, and chemicals. POE is used in various industries, including automotive, packaging, and consumer goods, due to its unique blend of durability and elasticity.

Mechanism & Features

  • Excellent Flexibility: POE provides outstanding flexibility, even at low temperatures, making it ideal for use in applications requiring elastic materials.
  • Chemical Resistance: POE offers excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and oils, making it suitable for use in industrial and automotive applications.
  • Low Density: POE’s low-density properties make it lightweight and cost-effective, without compromising on performance.
  • Improved Processability: POE can be easily processed using conventional thermoplastic processing techniques such as extrusion and injection molding.
