Typical applications
Automotive body and panels and structural door trim parts, under body sealants, technical mouldings e.g. plugs, ski tips.

Key Advantages :
* High rigidity and stiffness
* Good resilience properties
* Excellent resistance to chemicals
* Excellent sliding friction properties
* Low water absorption and tendency to creep
* Dimensional stability

Properties:
Elastollan can be thermoplastically processed and has a partially crystalline structure with a high degree of crystallization. It is produced by the copolymerization of trioxan and another monomer. It consists of linear chains in which the co-monomers are firmly incorporated in a statistically distributed manner.

many Elastollan formulations contain additives to facilitate production and processability. Further additives can also be included to modify specific properties. Such additives include mold release agents, flame retardants, UV-stabilizers and plasticizers as well as glass fibers to increase rigidity
