Specialty elastomers solutions for nonwoven fabrics
[2008-4-14]
ExxonMobil Chemical to showcase at INDEX 08 specialty elastomers that can be used to improve fit and conformity of nonwoven fabrics.
ExxonMobil Chemical to demonstrate its global leadership and commitment to nonwovens technology at INDEX 08. Featured will be ExxonMobil Chemical’s portfolio of Vistamaxx* specialty elastomers and its polypropylene (PP) solutions for nonwoven applications.
Since the launch at INDEX 05, Vistamaxx specialty elastomers continue to accelerate into nonwoven applications and, in particular, hygiene absorbent products (HAP) such as diapers. To support this growth, as well as increased demand for PP, ExxonMobil Chemical announced in September 2007 that it will proceed with a second world-scale steam cracker complex in Singapore, which will include a 450,000 tons-per-year PP unit and a 300,000 tons-per-year specialty elastomers unit.
Vistamaxx specialty elastomers are being used in a growing range of nonwoven applications including hygiene, medical, filtration and industrial because of their versatile benefits and product qualities. These include good elasticity, toughness, the ability to bond easily with other materials for advanced processing, design flexibility, and a high coefficient of friction for slip resistant applications.
At the show, the INDEX Awards recognize the best examples of excellence in innovation in the nonwovens industry. The awards panel, comprised of industry experts from marketing, research and development, the media and academia, has selected Vistamaxx specialty elastomers as one of three nominees for the category: Raw materials or component - innovation in a raw material of special relevance to the nonwovens industry. The winner will be announced at the awards ceremony to be held on the first day of INDEX.
