Kraton polymers are used in various wire and cable products. Kraton G polymers can be formulated for use in flexible cords, industrial cords, automotive primary wire, control wire, booster cables, welding cables, molded plugs and connectors. Kraton FG polymers can be used to enhance compatibility between flame retardant fillers and the polymer matrix.
Wire and cable designers, application engineers and processors can depend on Kraton polymer-based compounds to deliver:
- Excellent tensile strength and elongation
- Oil and abrasion resistance
- Cold temperature strength and impact resistance
- Rubber-like feel and appearance
- Lightweight
- Excellent colorability
- Good weatherability
- Good thermal aging
- Resistance to most acids and bases
- Flame retardant to V-0 rating
