Agriculture Film Thermoplastic Elastomers

Agriculture Film Thermoplastic Elastomers: GLS™ Versollan™

As the industry leader in soft tactile grip thermoplastic elastomers, GLS can suggest the right hardness to meet your most demanding applications. Extrusion, blown film production or blow molding requires high melt strength.

As the industry leader in soft tactile grip thermoplastic elastomers, GLS can suggest the right hardness to meet your most demanding applications. Extrusion, blown film production or blow molding requires high melt strength.

The choice of the thermoplastic depends on the functional performance needed in the end-use application. However, most of the combinations were limited to hard thermoplastics only. This is achieved by molding a soft skin of thermoplastic elastomer over a hard engineering plastic.
