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:
