Remains soft and flexible in extreme cold temperatures upto -40Deg.C.
Soft non-melting gel, which is applied at ambient temperature using conventional cold pumping equipment.
Available in wide viscosity range to suit customer's processing requirements.
Very high oxidation stability.
Zero oil-separation at 150 Deg. C
Fungus resistant.
Low hydrogen generation.
COMPATIBILITY
POLYGEL-LTF is compatible with PBTP, Nylon 12, LDPE, Polyamide-12, Polycarbonate, Polypropylene products, Fibre coating and UV coloring inks. Tests on all commonly used materials show no reaction but it is recommended that compatibility tests are made with all materials likely to come into contact with the gel.
