Adhesives and Sealants Formulations with Synthetic Rubbers

Synthetic rubbers are known for outstanding tack, excellent cohesive strength, excellent flexibility across wide temperature ranges, good aging resistance, and exceptional elongation properties. Synthetic rubbers are perfect for pressure-sensitive adhesives, construction sealants, and assembly operations. 

Major types include styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), butyl rubber, nitrile rubber, polyisoprene, and polybutadiene varieties. Recent innovations focus on hydrogenated synthetic rubbers with improved weathering and oxidation resistance, expanding application possibilities in demanding outdoor environments.
