Krasol® LBH-P 2000 by Cray Valley (TotalEnergies) is a linear polybutadiene polymer with primary hydroxyl groups. Possesses excellent chemical resistance, good electrical characteristics, good low temperature properties, hydroxyl functionality and narrow molecular weight distribution. It resists hydrolysis and reacts through the double bonds along the polymer chain and through the terminal hydroxyl groups. Krasol® LBH-P 2000 is particularly useful as the polyol component in polyurethane systems.
Ricon® 131 by Cray Valley (TotalEnergies) is a maleinized polybutadiene. Its varying carbon chain lengths between functional groups provide for varying sealant and hardness. In Ricon® 131, functional groups are added that can react with epoxy, amines, and hydroxyls. Has high performance and a liquid nature, which allows easy mixing. Its polybutadiene backbone improves the moisture resistance of the final product. The anhydride functional groups allow for adhesion improvement as well as compatibilization of polar and non-polar materials. It can be used in place of or in addition to anhydrides typically used in anhydride-based epoxy systems, and also in applications like low-temperature tackifier and non-extractable process aid.
Ricon® 131MA5 by Cray Valley (TotalEnergies) is a polybutadiene functionalized with maleic anhydride. Its varying carbon chain length between functional groups provides for varying sealant and hardness. In Ricon® 131MA5 functional groups are added which can react with epoxy, amines and hydroxyls. Has low molecular weight and liquid nature which allows easy mixing. Its polybutadiene backbone improves the moisture resistance of the final product. The anhydride functional groups allows for adhesion improvement as well as compatibilization of polar and non-polar materials.
