TOPAS® Elastomer E-140

Generic Family: Cyclic Olefin Copolymer • Supplied by: Topas Advanced Polymers GmbH
TOPAS Elastomer E-140, unlike most TOPAS grades, is a semicrystalline cyclic olefin material with flexibility. It is a fairly stiff elastomer which can be extruded and injection molded, and can be blended with other TOPAS grades, other olefin resins and elastomers. For an elastomer, E-140 features high moisture barrier and has excellent clarity in thin sections or films. Secondary Tg of -6°C is relatively insignificant in terms of E-140 properties such as low temperature brittleness. The major Tg is below -90°C, while the melting point is about 84°C.

Selected Applications
  • High toughness film (as COC blend)
  • Tubing
  • Bags
  • Overmolding
  • Food packaging
  • Food contact

Leading Attributes
  • Toughness, clarity, stiffness, low WVTR, reclaimability
  • Purity, kink resistance
  • Purity, olefin compatibility, cold resistance
  • Adhesion to olefins, purity, soft feel
  • Not manufactured with BPA, phthalates, or halogens
  • Broad regulatory compliance
