Applications

Eastoflex™ amorphous polyolefins can also be used in a variety of applications from hot-melt adhesives, paper laminating, sealants and pressure-sensitive adhesives. They can also be used as waterproofing compounds for wire and cable-flooding, in road-marking compounds, and as asphalt modifiers for modified bitumen roofing membranes. Eastoflex™ APOs are popular for use in these and many other applications:

Roofing: Our Eastoflex™ APO materials provide many performance benefits for industrial and residential roofing products. Eastoflex™ APOs used in applications such as modified bitumen roofing, adhesives, and asphalt modifiers, make sure the roof you build stands up to the environment it’s made for.
Flooring and Carpet Construction: Eastoflex™ APOs can be used in adhesives, sealants and backing construction for both residential and commercial flooring and carpet products.
Adhesives and Sealants: High water resistance, low color, ease of processing, chemical inertness, creep and sag resistance, and good adhesion to many of the common substrates encountered in hot-melt sealant applications, make Eastoflex™ APOs preferable for use in applications like window sealants.
Wire and Cable: Eastoflex™ APOs can be used as in flooding compounds for wires and cables to prevent the intrusion of water into the cable.
