TPV INNOPRENE Series

EP (Dynamic VULCANIZATION of DM and plastic blend) It is a crosslinked thermoplastic elastomer with high elasticity at the same time.
Various INNOPRENE products produced and supplied by Kumho Polychem Co., Ltd. are polyolefin-based thermoplastic elastomers, and the existing thermosetting products such as EP (DM, It can be substituted for CR rubber, and it is a material that can be substituted for soft PVC, which is recently mentioned as an environmental problem. In addition, the weight of the product is reduced due to the low specific gravity Available.
As INNOPRENE is already fully crosslinked product, it does not require additional crosslinking process before final use and recycling of scrap generated during the process is not required. It is possible to simplify the process and reduce the cost with an easy-to-use eco-friendly material.
INNOPRENE can be molded with equipment such as extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding (blow molding), and calender processing like general plastic resins. It is one of the new materials that can be applied to the extrusion field (such as automobile glass run channel, architectural window gasket, etc.).
