Hydrogenated styrenic block copolymers (HSBCs) are suitable for elastomeric adhesive applications. Not only can they be used in hot melt adhesives (HMA), but they are also widely used in solvent-based adhesives, as well as plastics modification for consumer and industrial applications. These block copolymers have good physical properties and are compatible with additives such as tackifiers and processing oils.
LCY’s specialty HSBC grades have good compatibility with additives. They are easily combined with other materials and can be used in many applications.
