AFFINITY GA Polyolefin Plastomers

Products

New-to-the-world AFFINITY™ GA Polyolefin Plastomers (POPs) provide superior processing, performance, and value to applications ranging from polymer modification and compounding to hot melt adhesives and more.

These highly versatile polymers harness the power of INSITE™ Technology and Solution Process1 to deliver both low crystallinity and low molecular weight. This one-of-a-kind balance allows processors and formulators to achieve:

  • Thermoplastic polyolefins (TPOs) that flow faster
  • Blends that are more flexible and durable
  • Masterbatches that are more heavily filled
  • Hot melt adhesives that stick better
  • And much more
