Coatings and Gels

Kraton® D and G polymers offer a broad range of performance characteristics that make them ideally suited for the production of coatings and gels. These firm-forming polymers are UV, ozone and oxidation resistant, strippable, protective, high friction, waterproof, sound deadening and shatter retentive.

Kraton polymers are suitable for solution or melt processing, and can be formulated with other polymers, resins, filters, pigments, oils, thickeners, waxes and stabilizers to obtain a desired balance of properties. Kraton G polymers are particularly well-suited for use as oil thickeners in oil gel compounds for filling communication cables. Properties include high tensile strength, elongation, resilience, flexibility and rebound.
