VESTAMID® Care ML resins are characterised by several outstanding properties, such as high impact and notched impact resistance, dimensional stability, good sliding properties, high abrasion and chemical resistance. VESTAMID® Care ME grades represent a range of flexible polyether block amide (PEBA) resins of varying hardness levels for processing via extrusion and injection moulding.
TROGAMID® Care grades represent a range of both amorphous and microcrystalline transparent polyamides for processing via extrusion or injection moulding.
VESTAKEEP® Care grades are the materials of choice when it comes to applications requiring metal replacement, dimensional stability and chemical resistance.
VESTENAMER® is used as valuable processing aid and polymer modifier for softer rubber seals and stoppers in vial cap applications and production of complex rubber parts for medical applications.
