FB538 BLACK ARM FOAM-1 FB539 BLACK ARM FOAM-2 PP FR 8-6 LMS-1000

If a foaming agent is required (to produce foamed parts), a mechanical shut-off nozzle must be used to control foaming activity and to prevent drooling. Polypropylene (PP) carriers are recommended for the harder SEBS formulations PP carrier is not recommended for softer grades, as the compound hardness will be affected.
