VECTOR 8508A
Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) Block Copolymer
  • SBS(1) triblock copolymer.
  • Contains <1% diblock copolymer.
  • Medium styrene, low modulus copolymer.
  • Outstanding thermal stability and excellent melt processability.
  • Supplied as a porous pellet, dusted with talc.
  • VECTOR styrenic block copolymers find use under certain regulations as articles or as ingredients in articles intended for food contact or medical applications. Please contact your Dexco Polymers agent for a detailed letter of certification or further information.

VECTOR 8508A styrene-butadiene-styrene block copolymer is produced via proprietary sequential anionic polymerization technology from Dexco Polymers LP, a Dow/ExxonMobil Venture. It is not formulated with the antioxidant TNPP (tris(nonylphenyl) phosphite).

It has excellent thermoplastic elastomer properties, melt processability, and physical strength. It has superior melt processability when compared to VECTOR 2518A SBS. It is designed for use as an impact/toughness modifier in styrenics, in elastomeric film applications, and in formulating adhesives.
