Exxelor™ VA 1840

Exxelor™ VA 1840 by The Compound Company is an impact modifier for polyamides for temperatures as low as -20°C and other engineering thermoplastics and technical polymers (with or without glass fibers, fillers, etc.). It offers compatibility between polyolefins and more polar polymers that are capable of interacting with maleic anhydride. It is a high flow, semi-crystalline ethylene copolymer functionalized with maleic anhydride by reactive extrusion. Exxelor™ VA 1840 has fully saturated backbone which results in outstanding thermal and oxidative stability leading to enhanced weatherability. Moreover, its elastomeric nature provides high impact resistance at room temperature and at low temperature when blended with engineering polymers such as polyamide.
