Denka™ Neoprene liquid dispersions are aqueous, colloidal dispersions of polychloroprene or copolymers of chloroprene and other monomers such as sulfur,
2,3-dichloro-1,3-butadiene. These LD products are available only as anionic surfactant systems.
GRADE | Solids Content, % | Crystallization | Features |
---|---|---|---|
571 | 50 | Moderate | High tensile strength |
671A | 59 | Moderate | High-solids, General purpose |
750 | 50 | Very Slow | Excellent flexibility |
842A | 50 | Moderate | Fast curing, Low modulus |
Polymer characteristics, including crystallization rate, molecular structure, and chemical composition, can be modified primarily through the use of co-monomers.
Selection of the best type of Neoprene liquid dispersion for a particular application is done by considering how differences in polymer characteristics affect the end
use of the application.
The table below provides a qualitative comparison of the important properties of the four types of Denka™ Neoprene liquid dispersion.
