NOTIO™ Nano-crystal Structure Controlled Elastomer

NOTIO™ is a flexible, low density, transparent elastomer with excellent heat resistance. The resin is not cross- linked and demonstrates superior elasticity. NOTIO's crystalline and amorphous structure (morphology) is controlled at the nano scale, allowing for the realization of properties that cannot be achieved with conventional elastomers.

Concept of NOTIO™ Nano-crystal Structure Controlled Elastomer

By controlling the functional polymer's morphology, a non-cross-linked compound with superior heat resistance and elasticity has been developed

The addition of this low-density elastomer to other compounds, particularly polypropylene, to achieve a fine balance of:

Impact resistance   Scratch resistance   Heat resistance   Transparency   Flexibility and elasticity   Elimination of whitening upon bending

Customers using NOTIO™ can take advantage of its unprecedented balance as a modifier and use its properties to develop new products. If there is a related application that you would like to consider this Nano-crystal Structure Controlled Elastomer for, please contact the product manager.

Mitsui Chemicals has filed a Food-Contact Notification (FCN) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the NOTIO™ product in November 2008, and the notification currently is pending with the Agency.
