HPS identifies a chloroprene type referring to a synthetic unsaturated rubber type group based on polichloroprene, produced through vulcanization in emulsion.
HPS products are non-inflammable, they withstand ozone, bad weather , chemical agents, aging, and oils, they offer good mechanical strength and good elasticity even at very low temperatures.
HPS is used in rubber components requiring non-inflammable materials and good endurance to severe weather conditions, aging and chemical agents.
Main benefits:
> Mean mechanical strength
> Good elasticity
> Good wear resistance
> Good heat resistance
> Good resistance to ozone, to aging and weather conditions
> With proper additives it withstand mineral oils
