Technical Information

Neoprene polychloroprene

The basic chemical composition of Neoprene synthtic rubber is polychloroprene. The polymer structure can be modified by copositionof with sulfur or 2,3 dichloro 1,3-butadiene to yield a family of materials with a broad range of chemical and physical properties.

BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF NEOPRENE PROFILES

  • Resists degradation from Sun, ozone & weather.
  • Performs well in contact with and many chemicals.
  • Remains useful over a wide temperature range.
  • Displays outstanding physical toughness.
  • Resists burning inherently better than exclusive hydrocaron rubber.
