Q1: What is the primary distinction between Hytrel DYM350BK and other grades in the Hytrel TPEE family?
A: Hytrel DYM350BK is a black-pigmented, medium-hardness thermoplastic elastomer engineered for enhanced processability in extrusion and injection molding. Unlike higher-melt-viscosity or specialty-function grades, it offers balanced elasticity and melt flow, making it particularly suited for continuous-profile applications such as seals, gaskets, and flexible housings.
Q2: Is Hytrel DYM350BK suitable for applications requiring resistance to oils, greases, and elevated temperatures?
A: Yes — as a polyester-based TPEE, Hytrel DYM350BK exhibits inherent resistance to many hydrocarbon-based oils and greases, along with good long-term thermal stability. It retains mechanical performance at continuous use temperatures up to approximately 120°C, though actual service limits depend on stress conditions and environmental exposure duration.
Q3: Can Hytrel DYM350BK be overmolded onto common engineering thermoplastics?
A: Yes — Hytrel DYM350BK demonstrates strong adhesion to substrates such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), and certain polyamides (e.g., PA6 and PA66) when processed under optimized temperature and mold surface conditions. Adhesion performance may vary depending on substrate surface energy, drying, and processing parameters.
Q4: Does this grade contain any halogenated flame retardants or heavy metals?
A: No — Hytrel DYM350BK is formulated without added halogenated flame retardants, lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromium. It complies with RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) requirements for restricted substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
