TRILENE – Versatile Liquid Polymers

Lion Copolymer produces TRILENE® liquid polymers. These viscous, low molecular weight EPDM and EP materials can be employed in a number of applications, such as adhesives, coatings, sealants, lubricants, etc. Physical, mechanical, rheological and thermal properties of TRILENE®, and some newly developed materials derived from TRILENE®, will be discussed.  These new materials include MARLENE™ (maleic anhydride-g-TRILENE®), TRILENE® grafted with siloxanes, vinylphosphonic acid (VPA), vinylphosphonic acid dimethylester, as well as brominated TRILENE®.  We will also talk about applications of these materials where easier processability, low moisture permeability, improved adhesion, etc., are required.  The presentation will also include recommended formulations for specific uses.
