Flexible Polymers from DuPont

DuPont flexible polymer solutions include these grades and development ideas:

  • DuPont™ Hytrel® TPC-ET thermoplastic polyester elastomer – Strength, toughness and flex life – whether it's HOT or COLD.
  • DuPont™ Zytel® LCPA resins - The family of Zytel® Long Chain Polyamides (LCPA) completes the range of Flexible Solutions where both superior chemical and hydrolysis resistance are required. The product line includes 6 series with various grades of PA1010, PA610 and PA612 to more easily source and deploy best-fit materials for their specific applications. The portfolio includes Zytel® RS polyamides based on renewably sourced PA610 and PA1010. DuPont™ Zytel® RS LC 4000 and DuPont™ Zytel® LC 7000 are the latest additions to our existing family of Zytel® LCPA, that combines high flexibility, toughness and thermal properties with superior chemical and hydrolysis resistance.
  • DuPont™ Active Layer - A monolithic film that works on the principal of moisture absorption on the inside of the fabric, water vapor diffusion through the fabric, and then evaporation from the outside face of the fabric.
