The Perlast® range of perfluoroelastomer materials are at the leading edge of polymer technology. They have been developed to offer superior sealing solutions with enhanced performance and improved functionality, which is proven in the field (see case studies).

"Our additives and ingredients enhance manufacturing processes and the performance of products. Thomas Swan has developed a range of viscosity-reduction additives for the rubber processing and polymer industries, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits. Pepton® chemical peptisers catalyze the mastication of rubber, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits. The dibenzamido diphenyl disulphide (DBD) chemistry used to produce the active ingredient within Pepton® is widely considered by the rubber processing industry to be more environmentally acceptable than traditional pentachloro thiophenol based peptisers. Thomas Swan’s DBD is the only fully REACH registered chemical peptiser. A range of formulated Pepton® products is available, each having different concentrations of the active ingredient combined with a range of complementary proprietary additives that enhance peptising performance."

Thanecure Grades Used For Vulcanization Of Millable Urethane Rubbers. They include Thanecure ZM and Thanecure T9 SuperFine (T9SF).

Various innoprene products supplied by Kumho Polychem Co.,Ltd. are thermoplastic elastomers of polyolefin type, and they can replace the existing thermosetting products of EP(D)M or CR rubber. The material is also able to replace soft PVC that is recently being discussed for its environmental problems. Moreover, the material is of low weight, therefore it is possible to develop light-weighted products. Innoprene is a product that is already completely cross-linked and there is no need for an extra cross-link process before its ultimate use. Also, it is possible to simplify the processes and reduce the prime cost as it is an environment-friendly material allowing for an easy recycle of scraps resulted from processing. Innoprene is possible to mold using devices of extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding and calendar processing as in normal plastic resin. Especially, it is among the new materials that are possible to apply in extrusion area. (automobile glass run channel and construction window gasket etc)

The GEMAPILEN GF series of compounds are 10% to 40% Glass fiber reinforced Polypropylene products. They are manufactured with Homo-Polymer or Co-Polymer to fit requirement.

Due to its good thermal and mechanical properties, this semi-crystalline material belongs to the polymer group of engineering plastics. It has a high surface hardness and good sliding and wear behavior. Since POM belongs to the group of short-chip materials, machining is significantly simplified when compared to similar plastic materials.

The RE-PLAS plasticisers are saturated polyester resins used in the production of PVC compounds and rubber compounds, providing resistance to volatility, resistance to chemical extraction and migration. These polymeric plasticisers are long chain polyesters with high molecular weight which results in a stable, durable and long lasting plastic or rubber product. The RE-PLAS range of plasticisers have been engineered to provide superior performance, with many grades suitable for food contact applications. Resistance to fuel, synthetic and natural oils are a key benefit.

Due to its excellent thermal and mechanical properties, this semi-crystalline material belongs to the polymer group of high-performance plastics (HPM).

Polymeric products HIPREN ® are intended for plastic and rubber processors, and they are integrated in a large number of everyday objects, making life a better, safer and more comfortable.
