Performance elastomers
Kraton polymers, used in roll roofing, modified mopping asphalt, modified shingles and a variety of roofing adhesives and compounds, are high performance elastomers which, when added to asphalt, can help improve a roofs performance, according to the company. Kraton IPD grades are said to help manufacturers produce roofing membranes with extended high and low temperature performance properties, better slump resistance, improved aging characteristics, resistance to thermal degradation and superior elastic properties. Kraton IPD grades are based on styrenebutadiene-styre...
