Sevrene® Thermoplastic Elastomers
These easy-to-process styrenic block copolymers can be customized for ideal stiffness, heat, ozone, compression set or UV-resistance, cost-reduction properties, and provide soft-touch haptics for enhanced end-use feel.
Cerberon™ Thermoplastic Elastomers
These alloyed elastomers combine plastic and small particles of vulcanized rubber to expand use temperature, ease processing, and provide good heat aging and flex fatigue.
Uravin™ Specialty Alloy
Ideal for high-use molded parts, this product family exhibits rubber-like properties with a dry, soft-touch feel similar to leather. It’s scuff-resistant, scratch-resistant and impact-resistant. Uravin™ offers excellent color retention when exposed to harsh temperatures and UV rays.
Flexovin™ Flexible Vinyl Compounds
These flexible compounds offer a strong balance of elastomeric properties and ease of coloring with the option of higher rigidity as needed.
V-Series Automotive Vinyl Compounds
Designed to meet the rigorous demands of interior automotive environments, this product line is suitable for extrusion and injection molding, and can be tailored for specific gloss and flow.
Trivin™ Series of rigid PVC Compounds and Alloys
This rigid and semi-rigid line of PVC compounds and alloys has superior flow characteristics that allow thin-wall parts to be produced via extrusion or injection molding.
eCap™ High-Performance Capstock
Available in a variety of material blends, these capstock compounds offer advanced weathering performance, dimensional stability and durability for decking, fencing, and other extruded building product applications.
Oleflex™ Thermoplastic Olefin
Developed as blends of polypropylene (hard phase) with an ethylene-propylene rubber (soft phase) compounded with additive packages, Oleflex™ provides a good cost and performance balance for flexible to semi-rigid parts.
Americhem has been at the forefront of thermoplastic compounding for decades with reliable solutions that extend beyond functional performance.
