Try PLIO-TUF-α blend of resin and rubber
PLIO-TUF is the trademark of a series of blends of natural or synthetic rubber and Goodyear's PLIOLITE S-6, the use-proved rubber reinforcing resin. Outstanding feature of these blends is the combination of excellent impact resistance with tbe hard, rigid properties usually associated with the more brittle plastics. By varying the proportions of resin and rubber used, a wide range of properties is possible. Further compounding with pigments and fil lers permits even greater flexibility. PLIO-TUF compounds are presently in use in a wide range of end-products, including helmets and other protective athletic equipment, bowling pin covers, golf ball covers and in industrial equipment ranging from tote-boxes to chemical-, water- and impact-resistant buckets. Compounds in the PLIO-TUF "family" are normally made up with from 60-90 parts of copolymer resin and from 40 to 10 parts of GR-S, n i tr i le , natural or neoprene. In any proportion, PLIO-TUF is readily machined—easily post-formed —can be buffed to a high gloss. Properties can be readily varied depending on the combination and specific proportion of rubber and resin you use. Although PLIOLITE S-6 is currently in short supply, act now to evaluate PLIO-TUF for the future, by writing for full details and sample to:
