Exact,Ñ¢ 9371 is an ethylene butene copolymer manufactured using ExxonMobil's proprietary metallocene catalyst technology. This resin exhibits compatibility with various polyolefins, including polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin (EVA). It is available in pellet form and is suitable for applications such as compounding, thermoplastic olefins (TPO), general-purpose elastomers, and injection molding. The typical density of Exact 9371 is 0.872 g/cm¬=, with a melt index of 4.5 g/10 min at 190¬8C under a load of 2.16 kg. Mechanical properties include a durometer hardness of 71 Shore A, a flexural modulus of 2300 psi (16 MPa), and tensile strength at break of 535 psi (3.69 MPa) with an elongation at break of 800%. Thermal properties feature a Vicat softening temperature of 125¬8F (51.4¬8C) and a peak melting temperature of 131¬8F (55¬8C). This product is noted for its low density and low crystallinity, making it suitable for applications requiring enhanced flexibility and durability. However, it is important to note that this product should not be used in medical applications without prior written acknowledgment from ExxonMobil.
With characteristics that improve strength and flexibility, Exact plastomer resins’ rubber-like properties support product durability and processability.
