PLASTOL 517
ExxonMobil specialties , United Kingdom
Product Description
Plastol 517 is a mineral paraffinic white process oil, complying with the purity requirements defined by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in chapter 21 CFR 178.3620(c). It has a markedly better colour and colour stability than conventional rubber process oils.
ExxonMobil mineral oils are produced and controlled according to the ExxonMobil Product Quality Management System, EN ISO 9000 or equivalent standard
Applications
Elastomers
Plastol 517 is recommended as an extender oil in EPDM or EPDM-based Thermoplastic Olefinics (TPO) and Thermoplastic Vulcanisates (TPV). It provides improved stability against colour and mechanical degradation of EPDM bales during storage, when compared to conventional extender oils. Due to a much higher degree of refining, Plastol 517 is also well adapted to peroxide curing of EPDM or Thermoplastic Vulcanisates (EPDM).
