Giving a boost to new ideas for rubber

What is Levapren®? Levapren® is a highly sophisticated material from LANXESS which offers an impressive range of exciting characteristics. Due to its outstanding compatibility with a number of fillers and polymers and its low viscosity, Levapren® is an ideal solution for a variety of formulation issues encountered when using conventional rubber substances. This rubber can also help to significantly improve the property profile of other polymers.

At a glance
  • High-tech polymer from LANXESS
  • Ideal for absorbing high quantities of fillers
  • Low viscosity ensures outstanding extrusion and injection molding
  • Significantly improved characteristics in blends with plastics
  • High resistance to aging, heat, UV and ozone
  • Ideal for the manufacture of transparent and translucent products

For decades, Levapren® has proved its mettle as an optimal solution for an extraordinarily wide variety of applications. For example, Levapren® rubbers are used in ultra-light, yet highly elastic shoe soles, in hose and seal applications of the engine compartments in cars, in transparent bellows or robust and UV-resistant profiles - not to mention safe flooring materials and cable sheathing protecting lives in the event of a fire. Moreover, in high-performance blends with other plastics, Levapren® can be used as a versatile additive that imparts desirable properties to a wide range of plastics. The state-of-the-art showpiece material from LANXESS is the solution of choice in all situations where uncompromising quality, extremely long service life and safety are vital!

The reason for these superior characteristics lies in the impressive heat and oil resistance, ozone and aging of Levapren® vulcanizates. Other further advantages of this polymer include that it is halogen-free and its ability to absorb large quantities of fillers. This means that Levapren® is ahead of the majority of conventional rubbers when it comes to high-end applications.
