NORDEL™ IP 4820

Generic Family: Ethylene Propylene Diene TerpolymerSupplied by: The Dow Chemical Company
NORDEL IP 4820 Hydrocarbon Rubber is a crystalline ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM). It has a low viscosity for excellent flow characteristics and hot green strength. It has been designed for property modification of thermoset rubber and thermoplastic polyolefin compounds including polyethylene and polypropylene. It can be crosslinked via traditional techniques including sulfur, phenolic, peroxide, irradiation, and hydrosylilation. NORDEL IP 4820 is Commercial Active and made via INSITE* technology.

Main Characteristics:
  • Highly crystalline
  • Medium diene
  • Low molecular weight
  • High green strength
  • Complies with
    • U.S. FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 (See NOTES 1)
    • U.S. FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 (See NOTES 1 & 2)
    • U.S. FDA 21 CFR 175.105 (See NOTES 3)
