ENGAGE™ 8100

Generic Family: Thermoplastic Polyolefin Elastomer • Supplied by: The Dow Chemical Company
ENGAGE™ 8100 Polyolefin Elastomer is an ethylene-octene copolymer that has excellent flow characteristics and performs well in a wide range of general purpose thermoplastic elastomer applications.

ENGAGE 8100 provides superb impact properties in blends with polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). ENGAGE 8100 provides high filler loading capability and outstanding peroxide cure capability. When cross-linked by peroxide, silane, or irradiation, it gives exceptional heat aging, compression set, and weather resistance properties, and may be used to produce high performance electrical insulation.

Main Characteristics:
  • Pellet form
  • Excellent flow characteristics
  • Improved impact in polypropylene and polyethylene
  • High filler loading
  • Peroxide, silane, and radiation curable
  • Exceptional heat aging, compression set, and weather resistance when cured

Applications:
  • General purpose thermoplastic elastomers
  • Wire and cable
  • Impact modification
