Houston, TX -- ExxonMobil Chemical has introduced Vistalon™ EPM* rubber 722 which can cost effectively improve processability and cable flexibility in medium- and low-voltage wire and cable applications. In comparison with conventional EPDM, the metallocene-based product can provide processing improvements while exhibiting similar performance. Compared with cross-linked polyethylene, it offers improved performance and excellent flexibility at low temperatures. It also has improved electrical properties compared with metallocene EPDMs. “We have developed Vistalon EPM 722 for customers looking for improved productivity during cable manufacture and increased flexibility and durability in final cable construction," said Ulf Nilsson, global EPDM product manager. The company said the new product is supplied in pellet form, making it clean and easy to use.
