Advantages vs. Competitive Materials Here’s how INFUSE™ Olefin Block Copolymers (OBCs) can improve upon the performance of a variety of other flexible polymers. Versus Styrene Block Copolymers (SEBS, SIS, SBS), INFUSE OBCs provide: Comparable elasticity and soft formulations at lower cost Improved temperature performance Excellent weatherability Lighter weight Versus Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), INFUSE OBCs deliver: Increased elasticity Higher heat resistance Improved compression set Lighter weight Better organoleptics (taste and odor performance) Versus Flexible Polyvinyl Chloride (f-PVC), INFUSE OBCs offer: A polyolefin-based f-PVC alternative Wider service temperature range Lighter weight Better organoleptics (taste and odor performance)
Versus Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPVs), INFUSE OBCs provide: Excellent compression set Improved processability Lower cost Versus Flexible Polyolefins (including Polyolefin Elastomers [POEs], Polyolefin Plastomers [POPs], and Amorphous Poly-Alpha-Olefins [APAOs]), INFUSE OBCs deliver: Enhanced elastic and compression set properties at high temperatures Improved abrasion resistance Faster cycle times Improved elasticity
