VECTOR 4230
Styrene-Isoprene (SI)n Block Copolymer

Radial (SI)n (1) block copolymer.

Contains ~30% SI diblock copolymer.

High strength with low viscosity.

High modulus, high cohesive strength.

Supplied as a dense 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 4230 styrene-isoprene radial copolymer is produced via proprietary anionic polymerization technology from Dexco Polymers LP, a Dow/ExxonMobil Venture. It is formulated with the antioxidant TNPP (tris(nonylphenyl) phosphite).

It is made with a patented coupling process that yields a polymer primarily with a 4-arm radial architecture. The radial structure provides viscosity shear thinning as well as higher modulus, cohesive strength, and heat resistance versus linear SIS/SI with comparable styrene content and melt flow rate. It is ideally suited for pressure sensitive applications requiring high strength, low viscosity, and easy melt processing.
