ALFATER® XL Highlights and Advantages

Alfater XL® is a thermoplastic vulcanizate elastomer (TPV) and combines in one material typical properties of elastomers with the advantages of thermoplastics.
Alfater XL® thus represents an economical solution for many technical components, as an alter- native to rubber.

Alfater XL® is based on PP and a dispersed, crosslinked EPDM phase. It is manufactured in a reactive compounding process, also called dynamic vulcanization. The resulting specific morphology enables ex- traordinary properties. The highly cross-linked EPDM ensures excellent elastic properties, such as very good resilience - even with increased temperatures. The PP matrix in turn guarantees a good thermoplastic processing, good coloring and good recyclability of TPV. Long process times and cost-intensive post-processing steps can be reduced or avoided through the use of Alfater XL®.

Alfater XL®: the advantages at a glance

  • Broad hardness range (Shore A40 to D50)
  • Easy thermoplastic processing (e.g. injection molding, extrusion, blow molding)
  • Good recyclability
  • Easy coloration (direct or with masterbatch)
  • Low density (< 1 g/cm3 )
  • Low tension and compression set
  • Good damping and Anti-vibration
  • Anti-slip and good grip
  • Heat aging resistance
  • Resistance against weathering, moisture, UV and ozone
  • Resistance against many aqueous solutions, acids and alkaline solutions
  • Excellent bonding to polyolefins, TPO, TPV and PA
