EC Number
618-370-2
Chemical Name
Styrene/Butadiene Copolymer

Calprene 718 is a new 75/25 butadiene/styrene Thermoplastic copolymer, polymerized in solution and having a radial structure.This product is stabilized with a non-staining antioxidant system, essentially gel free with a very clear color.Calprene 718 offers good processability and develops softer compounds when compared to other linear SBS grades. This grade has a 10% of diblock content.Calprene 718 is supplied in porous pellets.
