- Chemical Family:Polybutadienes
Ricon® 130 is a low molecular weight polybutadiene homopolymer, used as a non-extractable plasticizer in peroxide- and sulfur-cured elastomers. It features good insulation properties, a low glass transition temperature, and hydrophobic characteristics. This material also serves as a processing aid, resin, and plasticizer in encapsulant applications. It contains 111 ppm of 3,6-di-tertiary-butyl-4-methylphenol (CAS# 128-37-0) as an antioxidant. Ricon® 130 belongs to the polybutadienes chemical family.
