Elastomer technologies. (Materials).


Ultra high molecular weight siloxane siloxane /si·lox·ane/ (si-lok´san) any of various compounds based on a substituted backbone of alternating silica and oxygen molecules; in polymeric form they are polysiloxanes, and when the side chain substituents are organic radicals,  polymers are provided by the company, along with Nylex alloys based on polyamide polyamide

material used in the creation of nonabsorbable, synthetic, nylon sutures.
 and polypropylene, and TPSiV thermoplastic elastomers. TPSiV elastomers are based on proprietary technology that combines the high temperature elastomeric performance of silicone rubber with the melt reprocessability and thermal and chemical resistance of engineering thermoplastics. Applications for TPSiV include high performance jackets for automotive and industrial hoses. Multiflex, SEBS and SBS See Small Business Server.  thermoplastic elastomers are also offered by the company for such applications as PVC PVC: see polyvinyl chloride.
PVC
 in full polyvinyl chloride

Synthetic resin, an organic polymer made by treating vinyl chloride monomers with a peroxide.
 replacement for steering wheels and arm rests, tray liners, cup holders and other interior car parts. Multipro polyolefin compounds are used in a variety of applications in the appliance, automotive and furniture industries. (Multibase, Dow Corning)
