Electrical and electronic industry is demanding thermoplastic elastomers more than ever. From wire & cable to handheld devices and wearables, Zylog’s grades are being widely specified, meeting stringent performance from insulation, volume resistivity, flame retardancy to impact resistance and enhanced haptics
We are helping our customers replace PVC and thermoset rubbers, helping them reduce weight, manage heat and oil resistance, flame retardancy, EMI / RFI shielding, while enabling them to innovate to meet new requirements.
With the ability to meet diverse regulatory and statutory requirements, we draw on our wide range of chemistries to find the best solution for your needs. Several of our grades are UL certified
