The U.S. member body is ANSI. 9002 certified since 1993. Innovation and consultation are provided by Ameripol Synpol on both new and current elastomer elastomer (ĭlăs`təmər), substance having to some extent the elastic properties of natural rubber. The term is sometimes used technically to distinguish synthetic rubbers and rubberlike plastics from natural rubber. applications, as well as on polymers designed to meet specific customer needs. Ameripol Synpol also has a major R&D laboratory and pilot plant facility devoted exclusively to the development and testing of emulsion polymers. This plant can produce from one gram to 2,000 kilograms of new polymers and masterbatches. RICON RICON Rhode Island Consortium of Genealogical and Historical Societies RESINS Ricon Resins, Inc. an international supplier of specialty resins leads in the manufacture of liquid polybutadiene-based polymers in North America. Ricon Resins, an international supplier of specialty resins, leads in the manufacture of liquid polybutadiene-based polymers in North America. The polybutadiene (PBD PBD - Programmer Brain Damage ) core technology of the Ricon resins has grown from homopolymer products through maleinized polybutadiene to fully functionalized and highly engineered specialty polymer and copolymer resins. Customers use Ricon Resins' products to formulate and enhance performance of rubber and plastic compounds, UV curable cur·a·ble adj. Capable of being cured or healed. polymers, two component sealants, latex and water soluble polybutadiene systems and toughened epoxies. Ricon Resins' technology is based upon butadiene as its feedstock where many different products are made by polymerization polymerization Any process in which monomers combine chemically to produce a polymer. The monomer molecules—which in the polymer usually number from at least 100 to many thousands—may or may not all be the same. and copolymerization copolymerization (kōpäl´im  rizā´sh .
