Nipol® SBR
Nipol Solution-polymerized Styrene-butadiene Elastomers (SSBR) provide a good balance of dynamic, vibration dampening, and wear characteristics. They are utilized to produce a wide variety of goods such as automotive tires with good balance of rolling resistance, wet grip, and durability. These materials can also be used to produce motorcycle, bicycle, and aircraft tires, as well as coated fabrics, conveyor & industrial belts, and footwear.
S-SBR is produced by ZS Elastomers Co., Ltd., a joint venture company of Zeon Corporation and Sumitomo Chemical and sold exclusively in the Americas by Zeon Chemicals. E-SBR is produced by ZEON Corporation.
